Yup, go bananas. You could do a 5930k and two r295x2s or anything your heart desires.

I value low noise and ssd performance over raw cpu/gpu performance so I found a healthy balance on 16 lanes
 
If you had all the money in the world you should go banana's like the guy in this link:

If I wanted I could have spent 4x as much on my first PC last year and it would have been legendary for the time being. However I didn't because I knew that in a couple years I'd be able to upgrade for a 1/5th of the price and have a PC that is on par or faster than it.

Most likely this would be the best i would get.
Anything better then this would not improve anything in gaming.
All i need left is speakers and headset, which i would buy from a shop in my city.

and for those saying mechanical keyboard is better. It is not. Mech keyboards are more durable, last longer. But when playing a game, its all about the feeling en users preferance. Deathadder is quiet and light for fast typing.
