Wana make sure no bottle necking with everything...http://pcpartpicker.com/user/Blaster5968/saved/XskWGX

Nope, that's a pretty well balanced system. I would say go for a 2TB HDD though, 1TB goes pretty fast. 

 

Maybe go for an RM 850 to save a little money there.

Because it's a fair bit cheaper as just as good in terms of quality and efficiency. 

 

EDIT: And it's fully modular. $150 for a semi modular gold PSU seems very expensive to me. 

Ummm... no. The components in the RM are crap for the price. There's better, cheaper PSUs then the Silent Pro Gold, but the RM is definitely not one of them.

"Rawr XD"

the CoolerMaster V850 is a great PSU to get cheaper than the RM850

Budget? Uses? Currency? Location? Operating System? Peripherals? Monitor? Use PCPartPicker wherever possible.

They had issues with the caps at first, but I heard that they fixed it. 

 

If not, this PSU is a good alternative. http://pcpartpicker.com/part/evga-power-supply-220g20850xr
