Was just going to suggest changing the Fractal Design PSU to the one you just edited in - weird. :p
I would suggest adding a Hyper 212 Evo cooler, as it is cheap but will cool your CPU well and you'll be able to get an overclock out of it. :)

I would like a Asus motherboard because of the AI Suite 3.

I haven't bought the GPU, it's just set as that because for some reason PCPP doesn't show any retailers having it so I found it and set the price manually =P.

Wait, what's wrong with the Fractal Design PSU?
 
Its all good and there the PSU you chose is very good. No problem with that.

He is probably talking about R4 which is a really good case too. There is no problem with anything.

However you can also throw in an SSD if you have some money to spare. :)

Yeah when I do get some more money I might get an SSD. I think I'm going to go back to the Fractal Design Tesla R2 650W because it's 80+ Gold and it can run 760s in SLI. Which is something I might want to do, from all the videos and benchmarks I've seen the 760s in SLI are really good.
