You were seeking strength, justice, splendour.
You were seeking love.

GPU and RAM overkill. If you're planning on just gaming, 8GB is plenty. You could get the 7990, but you better stick with it for the next few years and not try to sell it, a few months down, or else you'll be losing a ton of money. You're also spending a lot of extra money on unnecessary things such as the razer "Elite" and "Ultimate" series of things which are basically the same as the originals except with some additional COSMETIC enhancements. Nothing you'll notice while on the computer. Do you really want lights flashing everywhere if you're surfing the web or gaming at night? :P
Next, trash the H50 CPU cooler. Get a high-end air cooler instead. If you're going to "liquid cool" your system, do it the legit way with an actual custom loop/waterblock, etc. With the H50 you would be getting way higher temps than a high-end air cooler for the same price.
Lastly, you need a gamepad? Seriously?
8.5/10. You definitely have a lot of great hardware in there, but you could have made it way better IMO.
