Looks really nice!

Only thing I can think of is you might want a better cpu cooler as that looks like the stock one and I found mine to not be that quiet under load. Really only if it bothers you.

 

only a nitpick.

I believe 650w is the recommended, it seems to be working really well. Just need to unlock the ram as it's at 2666hz now. The idea of the PC was for it to be good at 1440p gaming.
