Looking for views on this amended spec thanks.

I have taken advice and reposted this spec with a few changes; mainly a 120 ssd drive alongside a 2tb data drive. Plus an upgrade on the case and added two extra fans. It's a wee bit above my intended budget of £1100 but I'm hoping it's worth it. As I said my intended use is a smooth quality gaming experience. Please feel free to add your comments as they are very much appreciated before I order.
