overkill on the psu

No you don't need a sound card. Don't get that watercooling kit. It's a pretty bad one because half the stuff in it sucks. That tubing has a bunch of plasticizer and EK coolant isn't the best. I love EK for blocks and rads but I won't get EK coolant or that crappy tubing. Also get a D5 pump instead of that DDC. The new EK Vardar fans are good but those included in the kit are not. Also bitspower fittings are better but they cost more. EK fittings are ok if you can get them cheap enough but there's not much variant.

I could get better tubing, and I wasn't going to use that coolant because my theme is black and red. I was going to use distilled water and then upgrade to colored coolants

A good psu to get is an EVGA 220-GS-0550-V1

 

It has some extra wattage for overclocking and as for sound card do not get if you really need extra volume quality get a dac but, I still don't even recommend it because onboard sound is pretty good especially on a gaming mobo

Also, this is my first build.

If you're willing to go used, I have some high end parts that I'm trying to get rid of. Just PM me. If you need advice on what to buy, I can help you there too but kits are usually a bad idea.
