All things considered, it looks pretty good. I think the PSU is a Corsair CX430 which should be fine. My personal choice is Windows 7 Home Premium 64 bit.

looks great i would go with windows 7 to save money and get a smaller western digital black hdd there faster unless you really need the TB. Also i believe only windows 8 will have full dx12 support in the future so you may want to consider that as well.

I agree with Windows 7. If you must have the newest, then Windows 8.1, NOT windows 8.
