After tons and tons of research. I've compiled and hand picked all of my components. I'd like a few last opinions and advice before I start purchasing. Also I'd like to be sure everything that I've chosen will be compatible.

specs:

Gigabyte Intel Z77 LGA 1155 GA-Z77X-UD3H

Corsair Vengeance Blue 8GB (2x4GB) DDR3 1600 MHz (PC3 12800)

WD Blue 1 TB Desktop Hard Drive: 3.5 Inch, 7200 RPM, SATA 6 Gb/s, 64 MB Cache

Having more watts than you need doesn't hurt. Having too few watts does. I know the new GPUs use less power than the old generations do but overloading a power supply is something you don't want to have happen, especially if you're paying $400 or $600 for a GPU.
