Hi Redrobin53

The CPU is a very good one but the one you picked is a K version (meaning unlocked for overclocking) so unless your going to overclock I would suggest you safe your cash and get a none K version.

The GTX 980 is slightly overkill for 1080p thou it will max out everything depending on how well optimized the game in question is. If you have a 1080p monitor I would suggest you get the GTX 970 instead as it has the best power for the price and I always recommend it for 1080p gamers who want maxed settings.

You will also need a good PSU to run these components, you can get the PSU requirements for the GTX 980 and 970 on the Geoforce website.

Hope this helps
