Why a 730? For that price you could go with a PCI-E 240GB for the same price with a huge performance gain.

Also, 1,000 watts seems... excessive... for what you are doing. Unless you plan to Tri-SLI it, you'll never reach 1,000 watts. 

Other than that, looks good. If you're cool with spending that kinda cash, good on ya.

What budget what country, what's your display set up? If you just have a 1080p display then a high end GPU is wasted effectively

I edit my posts a lot, Twitter is @LordStreetguru just don't ask PC questions there mostly...
 

Spoiler

 

What is your budget/country for your new PC?

 

what monitor resolution/refresh rate?

 

What games or other software do you need to run?
