Ive been planning this build for a while and need some final advice

Link:

http://uk.pcpartpicker.com/p/fHBHK8

Note: Gpu will probably be a r9 380x and I will use a old monitor till then

Main usage: Gaming, all round homework station and possibly some light video editing in the future

Budget: Not including monitor and gpu, around £750 max

CPU: No need to get anything better at the moment

CPU Cooler: Is quiet, looks good and dosnt get in the way of my high profile memory

Mobo: Great looks, great internal dac, great bios and ek has a waterblock for it which i may use as I am planning on doing a full custom loop

Mmemory: Very well regarded and goes with my black/red/white color scheme

Storage: Suites my needs nothing more to say

Case: Great case in general and has a lot of watercooling support, which I hope to be taking advantage of in the future

PSU: Ample wattage for even dual 970s, fully modular and has great sleeving

PS im looking for an amp to drive my dt990 250oms an suggestions?

Seems good. As long as you can justify your choices there isnt much to change
