First Build - Check

[LittleRed]

This is my first PC Build. Just want to check if it is alright. I'm aiming for a quiet build with a black and orange colour scheme. I am in Australia for reference. 

 

It's mainly for gaming (for example battlefield 1, WOW, gears, skyrim + mods, fallout + mods, mass effect, and a bunch of indie steam games that are very pretty), and Uni (browsing with a heap of tabs open, LaTeX, Matlab, python, Java, etc). I would like to try overclocking in the future.

 

I already have a 1440p monitor.

Any recommendations for cheaper or better quality parts would be great. I am also looking for keyboard and mouse suggestions. 

My overall budget is about AUD$2000 (including peripherals).

Looks good

If anything, then I would change the GPU to an EVGA one. Mainly because EVGA's graphics cards are known for good quality and great customer support. Have heard about some issues with ASUS GPUs.

I would go for the EVGA SSC 1070, it is cheaper and looks amazing with RGB lighting.

Most of the EVGA cards that I can find that I can get in Australia are at least AUD$50 more. Is that worth it?

 

Also, is this PSU fine for this setup?
