pretty unbalanced
you are spending all your money on ram and a useless liquid cooler
first of all get a current-gen z87 mobo with the lga 1150 socket, i5 4670k is a good cpu
get 8gb of ram instead of 16
get a cheaper air cooler, those closed-loop liquid coolers are horrible, break often, are just plain...bad
you dont need 750w for a single card, 600w is sufficient for any card
get a better video card

I wanted an affordable card. And ok I'll change the cooler and RAM, plus mobo.

Edit: I don't see a z87 in the part picking list for motherboards

Looking at the page for the computer setup I seen
"Compatibility Notes
Asus P8Z77-V LK ATX LGA1155 Motherboard has an onboard USB 3.0 header, but the NZXT LEXA S (Black) ATX Mid Tower Case does not have front panel USB 3.0 ports."

You should probably get a case with front panel USB 3.0 so you can use the USB 3.0 that comes on the motherboard. You'll have the back few but a front one is nice to have.

didnt include case, choose that one yourself. i like the one you chose more than nal's suggestion though. also buying a case fan is kinda useless because all cases have at least 2 fans included, most have 3 - 5.
plus on the r9 290 card, wait until the better-cooled versions of it drop from asus, msi, xfx, etc in a few weeks. the stock version currently being sold from amd has a single bad cooler which is really bad atm. the coolers from the other manufacturers will fix the temp problems plaguing the stock-cooled card.

You'll have the back few but a front one is nice to have.

yea this too

get r9 280x instead if you can only spend 300 on a video card.
i would recommend the sapphire one, it looks the loveiest and the temps are good afaik

Are you sure you need another cooler already?

Ah, understandable. At some point I might get myself a cooler so I can OC for when my CPU starts getting outdated.
