It's rather good, but I'm curious on what you plan on using this PC for. If you ever want to SLI, I'd bump that unit up to 850W.

Be nice to each other boys and girls. And don't cheap out on a power supply.

Will I be able to overclock my CPU and stream at the same time without having problems with temp (with that corsair cooler)?

Alright, sounds good. You could get away with a lower wattage PSU. Otherwise, the build is fine.

That's fine, it was really only a suggestion to save a few pennies.

Will my cooler be good enough for OC and streaming?

Yes, with a bit of luck, you should be able to reach 4GHz stable.
