Never built/owned a gaming pc. A few Questions.

If you want to overclock, you'll also want to upgrade to a Z97 motherboard (instead of the H97), because they handle overclocking much better. Then, if you actually want to overclock, you'll need a good aftermarket CPU cooler (although that wouldn't need to be purchased until you actually start overclocking).

Something like this:

and add the CPU cooler when you can.

I'm not really sure what the price to performance benefit is, so hopefully someone else can help with that.
