Well, that's more or less an ultimate gaming PC - for now. You could go with a single bigger SSD, but it's not a big deal.

However, new video cards are likely to be available in about three months.

Did you save any money for a monitor? What kind do you plan to get? I suggest 1440p and 144Hz. G-sync too if you're going all out.
