I'd change the PSU to something that has a better value, but that's about it.

Nice build, switch the RMx PSU to a EVGA 750 G2 and you're all good :)

 

Does the G2 support skylake?

Does the G2 support skylake?

Yes. Every PSU does, since all the connectors are exactly the same.

Yes, PSU's are pretty much universal, so long as it's an ATX PSU it'll work 99/100 times.

Not all, but any PSU with enough wattage and that are part of the ATX standard.
