You've paired a unlocked CPU with a motherboard that cannot overclock it. Plus, the power supply is overkill since 550W would be more than enough.

 

I'd also argue that not having a SSD in a build of this calibre is a sin.

On Newegg only.

 

Why are you trying to buy all your parts from one site? You can save some cash by buying from multiple retailers.

It's fine but don't you want an ATX motherboard to go with your ATX case?

It is. But typically ATX motherboards look nicer in ATX cases.
