Help me plan my first PC build! PLEASE provide some feedback! :)

If you could swap motherboard and add said money to an ssd, that may be a worth while change. 

Bleigh!  Ever hear of AC series?

I already have an SSD in the list, it's the 850 Evo at the bottom

I like this mobo because of it's looks, I changed over from the Z97-Pro Wifi to this

I don't own anything that's inside the PC yet... Only whats outside

I will SLI l8r in the future, I love Asus boards, this is kind of a asus+corsair themed build.

 

Also one question is that PSU going to be okay with 2 970's plus CPU overclocked in the future?

Yes but its hard to judge your budget when half of it is stuff you already own

 

What is your budget for the stuff you dont already own?, also Asus are great but you will pay MORE, so its hard to make it cheaper if you have to use asus boards and GPUs

Hm let me fix that

Also as much as water cooling is good I still am scared of water inside of my PC case, even if it's sealed, also they can be loud and I want a silent build
