Can someone confirm the compatability?

I made a similar post earlier this week but I changed quite a few things and I wanted to make sure everything was still compatible.

 

I've confirmed that the RAM is compatible and that there are no clearance issues with the GPU or PSU. I just want to know if you can plug 3 pin fans into 4 pin headers on the motherboard, and if the PSU has enough connectors for everything. Is there anything else I'm forgetting?

 

EDIT: SORRY PCPP chose the wrong power supply, I'll be using a $120 one from microcenter. Also I'm buying all my parts from Microcenter, Newegg, or Best Buy, so ignore the prices shown.

Compatibility wise it's fine, but I think you should get a better SSD (Like a Crucial P1) and swap out the psu for something cheaper. 250$ for the RMx unit is outrageous

Looks solid for the most part. Yes you can plug 3 pin fans into 4 pin headers and the PSU has plenty of connectors for the GPU and everything else.

Ditch the PSU. You can easily get a great quality PSU with equivalent wattage for half that price. Then you can put that saved money towards a good after market CPU cooler, since you generally don't want to use the cooler that comes with the processor, especially if you plan to overclock.
