Was wondering if you guys could rate this build for me? Is it worth going for?

I'm trying to build a study system to play the upcoming games on high settings on my new Benq XL2411T @ 1920x1080 such as Crysis 3 / Civilization etc.

You would also qualify the free games offer Crysis 3 and Bioshock Infinite. Makes the build a little cheaper as you wont have to buy Crysis.
