It's decent, go with Z170 or X99 instead - you'll get much newer hardware that will last a lot longer. What is your budget?

 

[Noah M]

The build that I made online is currently $1762. I would like to stay somewhere around their.

I think it's a tricky thing with 980 since Ti came out. I would probably try to save up and for a small extra cost get much better card.

if you are going to be installing windows i recommend upgrading that SSD to a 256GB Samsung 850 EVO. this drive offers better performance than the sandisk

All sataIII ssd's are pretty much the same limited by the bandwith. Sandisk are decent cheap drives to get actually unless you not bothered with the budget
