Seems decent.

You'll need a PSU as well though. A decent 500/550w is plenty for that system. (even with a titan).

Overclocking is very easy nowadays. There isn't much risk to it.

Don't make multiple threads for the same build--please keep it to one per build. I'm merging the threads.

If you ever need help with a build, read the following before posting: http://linustechtips.com/main/topic/3061-build-plan-thread-recommendations-please-read-before-posting/
