New system with xeon 1231v3

So, I'm (think of) building a new workstation with the Xeon 1231v3. Current spec list is as follows:

Xeon 1231v3.
AsRock Z97-Pro 4
Adata Sx900 128gb
WD Black 2 TB
Asus Strix 960 4gb/ Strix 380 4gb
Kingston HyperX 16gb
Corsair Rm 750

Improvements? Thoughts? (Insults?)

Will be using it for editing photos/videos, gaming, sorcery.

Go for the 4gb 380 and I'd say thats a good build. I'm actually using a 1231-v3 and a 980 ti as my daily desktop ( http://pcpartpicker.com/p/szNtGX ), and its a great chip in my opinion. I also employ the AsRock Extreme6 which is has been great, and its basically just the Extreme4 with a couple extra bells and whistles.

Give me a few minutes to try and make the formatting work. Here is what I have now. Its a good bit more expensive than what you had, but its also a lot more powerful.

Right.
Thanks for the help. I probably won't be building the system now, as my current workstation is still sufficient, but in the next few months. I'll also make a few changes to your supposed build, but thank you tremendously for helping with the sketch.

Cheers.

Well what is your current setup? If its working for you, maybe all you need is a few bits and bobs to extend its life.
