Do you need an optical drive?

-Drop to an MSI z87-GD45
-8GB RAM will suffice, also Corsair Vengeance Pro Red to go with the red mainboard
-the GPU is alright, but the DCUII isn't all that amazing this gen. fits with the color scheme though and probably won't disappoint you
-i really don't like that case, it's so ugly. but that's personal preference
-for the love of god drop the ODD
-cooler is fine, storage is fine, cpu is fine, PSU is fine

Yes to all 3 questions.
If you don't plan on overclocking you can even drop to a decent air cooler(Hyper212) to keep things quiet.
I would upgrade the SSD, 128GB fills up pretty quickly. Upgrade to PRO 256 or Samsung EVO250( a bit cheaper and performs just a tad bit slower but still fast being an SSD). Also WD Black is somewhat noisy, I'd get the WD Blue.
Being a gaming focused machine 8GB ram will be enough.
