Do you have an aftermarket CPU cooler appropriate for overclocking? There's no purpose in buying a K series Intel CPU if you don't overclock it; you're just wasting money otherwise.

What would be a good aftermarket fan for a CPU for this build.

Fucking WHAT?

Either way. Looks good Caruthers! And I agree with SGT Wolfe on all his options, and with the water cooling option

Nice!!!!! The samsung pro is probably the best ssd on the market, as for the cooling I have a h100 all in one water cooler for my 4690k which is o/c to 4.2 mhz and has been really good at keeping the cpu cool, no issues whatsoever!!!

That might be one of the best swag loot hauls I've ever seen just in the SSD alone.  Nicely played.

No desire to hang tight till Nvidia drops Pascal?
