I'd checkout the reviews on that SSD.

The case seems very expensive to me. $260? Why not just get a coolermaster CM 690, theyre around £70 which is about $114 at present

To be honest it seems a bit like overkill. You're just playing games right? 2TB Hard drive is understandable if running a server, but if this is purely gaming purposes, I don't think you can even buy enough games to fill up 2tb. at the rate technology advances, that hdd will be outdated before you hit 1tb

I just purchased this case for my build, it keeps the temps down very well, looks good and is only $130.

8-8-8-24 ram also seems unnecessary
