Looks pretty good. I'd go with a WD Caviar Blue for the HDD, as I've heard they're more reliable. And there's a thread somewhere on here that ranks all the PSUs.

7600k isn't worth it. Either get a 1600 or a 6700 or 7700 instead, or be really efficient with the budget like @herman mcpootis and get a 7700k xD 

Make sure to quote me or tag me when responding to me, or I might not know you replied! Examples:

And make sure you do it by hitting the quote button at the bottom left of my post, and not the one inside the editor!

Buy whatever product is best for you, not what product is "best" for the market.

 

Interested in computer architecture? Still in middle or high school? P.M. me!

 

I love computer hardware and feel free to ask me anything about that (or phones). I especially like SSDs. But please do not ask me anything about Networking, programming, command line stuff, or any relatively hard software stuff. I know next to nothing about that.

more than enough, power consumption with a gtx 1070 won't go past 300w.
