I want to make this build and wanted to ask the community here if they can point out any compatibility issues I might have missed. Also I want to do some overclocking, so should I get a larger psu, and can anyone recommend any minor changes that might make it better (ex. four sticks of ram instead of just two)?

Updated list: https://pcpartpicker.com/list/B7BqNN (the fans are to replace the ones that come with the AIO cooler)

also your ram seems kind of low for all the other components, i mean with a build this caliper i would expect at least 32gb

It's not necessary though, an i7 6700K on a Z170 motherboard would be fine.
