$2200 Build final checks

Nothing wrong with using an aio, especially if one wants to show off the motherboard. Rather than the two additional fans, why not get a 2x140mm aio. It will provide much better cooling and mounted in the font will improve airflow.
CPU coolers come with either a pre-applied pad or tube of thermal compound. There is generally little need for additional or different compound.
I would use a 2x16GB memory kit. This would leave two slots free for upgrading should that ever be necessary.
Consider simplifying storage by going with a single ssd.
I'd suggest a slightly higher capacity psu.
