Getting the parts for a new PC, this is fine right?

Stop being so fucking impatient and wait for non reference 1080s to hit the market, cheaper and much better than the Fanboy edition.
Also do you need the I7? For gaymen the 4690k is perfectly adequate.
i7 is completely pointless for gaming, just get an unlocked i5 and save money.
The GTX 1080 is a piece of shit, it constantly overheats and has no async compute. Get an AMD card instead.
The Rx 480 (8GB) will be available soon in a couple of days, get that instead. Buy 2 (~$400) and crossfire them, you'll get more FPS than the 1080.

I'm an ex-nvidia fan btw. But after 4 years of constant BS from then I've decided to switch over to AMD. Currently own a gtx 960, gonna buy 2 of those rx 480 cards and crossfire them.

Yeah I was thinking of the 2 480's, but when comparing them apparently the game they were comparing on heavily favoured the AMD cards

Maybe but I trust AMD is going to do a good job with Polaris. AMD hasn't been doing so well these last few years so it's in their best interest their new GPUs and CPUs not be shit.
