The current SSD prices are stable, with all SSDs under $1 per gigabyte when on sale.
The new Haswell Refresh CPUs are here this week, and just like their predecessors they run a little bit on the warmer side. Depending on how much you want to overclock, you may need to spend a bit more for a better CPU cooler like the NH-D14. Release is Wednesday (6/25) in the US and they appear to run slightly cooler with a slightly higher max overclock.
Unless you are doing a lot of video rendering or something that is similarly multithreaded, you do not need the 4790K and should spend that money elsewhere.
Make sure to keep your AMD and Nvidia drivers up to date.
Don't hesitate to post any feedback in the comments of that news post, and don't forget to visit the Computer Forum for any extra questions! If you are interested in Folding@home, take a look in our team's thread.
