The H60 is somewhat of a waste of money. I'd say either go with a 240mm+ AIO or go for an air cooler. 120mm coolers tend to be bad from a price/performance standpoint, you can get an air cooler that will perform better for the same price or less. 

 

I would suggest adding some mass storage if you haven't already got a solution. Not sure what your data usage is like, but 1TB goes very quick for me. 

 

EDIT: Other than that, everything looks good, it's a pretty well balanced system.

WAIT i just realized i had the 550x not the 750x oops

dont commet about the psu plz 

550W is more than enough for that system. Even if you added another 1070, 550w would about do, with 650W being more than enough.

If its the same price (pretty sure it is) why not get a better psu?

Nah, the 550w is $0.10 cheaper. 

 

Didn't actually look at the pricing. Yeah, they're essentially the same price, so may as well get the 750w unit.

Just a couple edits. Biggest changes are the GPU and storage. 1.1tb will be plenty for most people. I have 700gb between 2 SSDs in my system and still have about 1/2 open with a good number of steam games installed, as well as FO4 with about 40 mods. 

One thing, the Mx300 is just the m.2 form factor, its no faster than a normal SATA SSD. Keep that in mind as it will occupy the m.2 slot if you ever wanted to get an NVmE drive.

SSD + HDD would be better...

Good luck!
