I'd put in a hard drive as well as the SSD. Other than that, everything looks good.

if possible, get a 250gb ssd, its a better value (like add 10$ for double the capacity or something)

also, add a 1tb or 2tb HDD for mass storage, unless you already have one

 

and get a better psu, this psu isnt going to power your rig well (especially with a power hungry 390)

-sigh- feeling like I'm being too negative lately

get the G2 650W. more than enough. everything looks fine but change the SSD to a 250gb. 120gb is too small.
