Nice growth icon btw. Definitely caught my attention.
There sometimes are special discount pricings on the LGA1155 or even that LGA1150 Intel CPU. What motherboard choices you have are driven by the CPU socket type. Only the new, smaller form factor CPU sockets are "bleeding edge" and carry commensurate price tags, that being in excess of $500. This is probably why the motherboard also is so expensive, when I can go to tigerdirect.com (or their brick-and-mortar store in town) and find plenty of excellent motherboards much closer to $250 or less.

Therefore, you can still be "future proof" with an LGA1150 or LGA1155 socket type CPU, since the i7 at 3+ghz speeds is available often at a price of $250 more or less, depending on exact socket type (seems the 1155 for some reason is more backward, but only by a tiny margin).

That memory price for all 4 memory sticks is terrific, incidentally. Each one being in excess of $100 is typical. NB: To address 64gb RAM, a 64-bit Windows OS and a more modern than LGA115x series CPU/motherboard is required. I get along famously with the 32gb limit all LGA1155 motherboards carry.

Case, as long as your parts all fit in there and have appropriate motherboard resources for them is totally cosmetic choice after satisfying those requirements. Therefore, I can't say whether that exact case is a good deal or not. I know I tend to not spend over $100 on a case, even though that limits me to these monolithic black types, is not super important to me. My CPU case is behind my monitor so I seldom see it or interact with its optical drive and USB ports. You can infer that means I seldom burn discs and seldom use thumb drives. For iPod, e.g., I just leave the data cable plugged in and the business "distal" end I leave dangling. E.g., the lightning connector is just hanging next to my monitor. Beats having to fish for it every time I want to use it and trying to plug the "proximal" USB end into its port right. I seem to have a talent of trying to fit it in 3 times, flipping it each time, THEN looking to see how they mate and finally wiggling it in place...

That's a good low price on a water cooler, very necessary for high speed computing such as you have spec'd there. I highly recommend having a shop assemble everything, install Windows, even though that's more money still - this is because only when this occurs do you have customer service after the sale. Many places won't even give 100% store credit for returns... some not even 85%.

The question to ask is 64gb RAM really terrifically important? Save for 3D rendering and video processing software, the answer tends to be no. Games running in this sort of environment seldom are optimized to take full and/or good utilization of anything over 32gb.

SSDs are pricy, but sometimes a 1tb drive is much more expensive than 2x 500gb. Since the SATA channel at 6gb/sec is strained already by a single SSD, I really think a RAID0 configuration which needs only 2 drives is adequate, and performance/price doesn't get more attractive at RAID5, e.g. What RAID5 buys you is protection against failure of one drive, and can still run on just 4 of the 5 working (but performance suffers until you add the replacement 5th). HOWEVER, if I recall correctly, replacing one of the RAID5 drives requires a "rebuild" or "repair" of the RAID data, which can be extremely time consuming, even with SSDs.

Another thing to remember is RAID is an acronym for Redundant Array of Inexpensive Drives. SSDs hardly qualify as Inexpensive, so right there you are going past the reason why RAID was invented - to make cheap rotary/magnetic drives work together to be faster, somewhat failure tolerant, and still cheap.

RAID0 I still recommend over any other raid configuration. RAID1 only gives you a full backup volume, no added capacity from that vs. a single drive present in the system. There is a fault detection protocol built into most magnetic and SSD drives which will give you advance warning that the drive is about to fail... if your BIOS or motherboard driver detects and reports any problem. The default is to ignore this, save for when you run diagnostic software, which since that's usually employed after trouble starts, can be too late.

Anyhow, if a 32gb system that is in the quad-core, 3ghz range sounds acceptable, from $500 to $1000 can be saved. Look at prebuilt systems with those specs and I betcha several are well under $1500.

Newegg.com is another terrific online ordering site. Full systems and components are priced almost too low to beat anywhere.

Sometimes performance in gaming is dependent upon the GPU type more than CPU type. I chiefly have experience with nVidia GeForce products, and can say that 2gb or more video memory with GDDR5 tends to help a lot. The 980 series is in excess of $500, and currently is the board I am envying atm. I'm using a GTX 760 which performs pretty well and cost much more like $220 or so. They are cheaper still nowadays.

ahh 4 sticks of ram MAKE 16 GB... Not 4 sticks of 16GB hehe.. Yea that would be overkill.

Ah still be advised that the "default" 32-bit Windows (7 or 8) will stop using RAM beyond 3.5gb or thereabouts. It means insist on a 64-bit install, because it is extremely frustrating to "upgrade" from 32-bit to 64. It practically requires a reformat of the hard drive (to a single volume for win7) and a re-install of the entirety of applications you want to continue using.

The app install is pretty much mandatory because a backup/restore would simply put gimped, potentially incompatible 32-bit apps under the 64-bit environment. Re-installation often makes sure the appropriate app files, libraries, registry entries, ad nauseum, are initialized appropriately.

A "files and settings" backup from 32-bit also won't be read by a 64-bit version of windows, so you must use manual backup/restore, or some other app for that function too.

This extreme pain is all thanks to MS engineers who had no initiative to facilitate this form of lateral upgrade.

Therefore, with new PCs, I really recommend efforting to get them with 64-bit os/apps installed along with the hardware. You'll have enough to do just getting Windows Update to quit from finding more and more (and more and still more) updates after being freshly booted/initialized, new accounts (esp. w/admin privs) created.

Ive been running 64 bit forever.. YOur not talking to a newbie ^^ I am a Tech Fur after all.

News to me, well congrats and GL with it all.

GOnna have to put all this on hold.. I figure its smarter to pay off my credit cards then replace the computer thats working great ^^ Thanks for your input though.. No one else seemed to give this a second thought.

The other thing is info I tend to have people infer from reading the style and tone of long replies like that.
In other words, I incorrectly assumed you knew this: Any writing I do I try to make understandable by novices and young people. I don't always succeed, but I try. Even my replies like my first one I only seemed to not know you were expert because it was irrelevant, in such a case.

TL/DR: I wrote my reply for public viewing.
