Otherwise, AWESOME build. It's going to be sweeeeeet. Make sure to post a build log so all of linustechtips can oogle at its glory. 

I'd change the SSD for the 840 EVO and the PSU to a 650W one. Pretty good overall.

Agree with change of graphics card.

Agree with change of SSD.

I'd get the Corsair RM650 over the AX760i. Its cheaper and has the hybrid *silent* fan system.
