What are you doing with your life build? Gaming? Working?

Then it is really unblanaced. Get an i5 6600k or 7600k and an RX 480 instead. 

650w is totally waste. Get less wattage and save money there too

A 2.5" SATA would do fine.

It looks awfully unbalanced... you've seemed to have prioritised looks over performance which isn't the way to go.

You'll be fine with a 2.5" SATA drive such as the Crucial MX300 or the Samsung 850 EVO. But you're spending way, way too much on the CPU cooler, motherboard, RAM and case when you could have a much, much better GPU.

Here is what I would get and @HKZeroFive would propably agree with me too.

Your board support SLI, so maybe a higher wattage PSU for future proof. 550w is enough but might cut close.

The red part on that ram might look hideous in the build

TBH, I don't think he should SLI anyway.

Apart from not all game works with SLI then adding in another 1070 in the future would be nice, costs would be lower than selling a 1070 and hope to get something better.

again im pretty content with what iv chosen im looking for my things to have a theme and have AIO cooling, everything might look bad or sound bad now but it leaves me room to upgrade later AND can handle what i want to do for right now. i appreciate the input and im looking into swapping parts out from what yall have suggested but the main thing i was looking for help on was the SSD or M.2 for my OS storage
