Hello all! I'm a former computer engineer who's flying helicopters now, and I haven't built a PC in about 10 years. I'm still an avid gamer, and I want to transition back to PC Master Race (Stellaris, ah how I love thee). I'm no stranger to CPU/GPU/RAM overclocking and plan on doing so with the new build. I've been doing a lot of reading for the past few weeks and I think I have what I'm looking for. My budget was $1500 for the PC, and to reuse my OS license, mouse, kb and 25" monitor. Then I saw my buddy's Acer predator Z35p, and figured a nice monitor would be a worthwhile investment. I started with a ~$500 budget for a 34-35" monitor and had selected the ViewSonic Elite XG350R-C, but after doing more reading/researching I've decided to up my monitor budget to about $1000 and just get something really great. I've gone a little over budget with this build, but I think all the overages are worth it. For the monitor, I'm thinking of the new LG 34GN850-B, but I had to choose the 34GK950F-B in the list b/c the GN850 isn't listed there yet.
What do you all think? I'm missing a few fans and possible heat sink paste, but I think all the rest is here.

I just saw my signature... wow.
