Anybody see issues with this build?

 

I already have a video card (Vega 64), 1440p monitor, power supply (HX750), and 2 other sata SSDs.

If you want to save a bit more money go with a SATA SSD i.e 860EVO or Crucial MX500 etc. There is also a non WiFi version of the board for a touch less if you don't need that feature, or the cheaper Aorus Elite and Gaming X which are fine for the i5.

Thanks for suggesting alternate parts

The 970 Evo, Samsung MZ-V7E1T0BW, is only a few $ more, has slightly better performance and a longer warranty.

G.Skill - Ripjaws V Series 16 GB (2 x 8 GB) DDR4-3000  is less expensive with marginally better specs than the Corsair kit.

I'd suggest a better cpu cooler, especially if overclocking is contemplated. 

I'd also suggest a different motherboard. One with more robust power delivery.

80+ ratings certify electrical efficiency. Not quality.
