Hey guys. I'm doing a computer build, my first ever one really. Hoping someone could look over what I've got let me know if everything looks ok, no lack of wattage, wrong socket type, missing components or anything. This computer will be used for just about everything and pretty much constantly. Web surfing, a lot of video, occasional PhotoShop and SketchUp, and a lot of gaming (RTS, FIFA, RPGs) with many games installed at the same time. Planing to keep my AlienWare case (for now), monitors, 1.75 TB spread across three other WD internal drives, and 4TB on two external USB.
*Links are all NewEgg for ease of use; but I'm looking elsewhere to buy because I'm in CA.

Later on get a new case:
