Ignore the peripherals...

Get faster ram, atleast 1600 with a cas of 9 or less. No need for the thermal compound the 212 will come with some.

Dude it`s a very nice build and if your going for some nice overclocking and high res gaming then your set but could you maybe not get 1333mhz ram for such a sweet pc??? Just feels wrong, very good 1600 or 1866 will be better in my opinion...

Gpu need to change your memory. 1333 mhz is too slow for 4790k. Get 1600mhz cas 9. Here I do that change:

The i5 4690k will be sufficient for gaming. Get that and a good mobo like Asus z97-a.
Beat luck.
