What monitor you getting?

But really.... Dun waste money on things that you dun need... From all of your posts, dun mind me saying but it seems you are just following what other ppl tell you or with the typical mindset of "higher is better".

from what i see just get a b85 board cause if you use raid on ssd maybe decrease 1 or 2 sec nia... unless this is a F1 race if not i think for 1 or 2 sec paying more money for it is useless. And for the ram just get any cheaper 1600 cl 9 8gb ram can le all the performance not much diff de uh. Lastly for I7... the price range is really alot difference between 4770 and 4570 but the gaming gap between the 2 processor are small... Doesn't justify the extra paid for gaming, but for video editing still can. So just use that money saved for future upgrading ma...
