I changed some parts in my build. Are these okay or should I stick with my original?

I decided I didn't like the look of some parts in my build so I changed a few. I switched the MSI 970 for a Gigabyte 970 and the Corsair Vengeance for a Kingston Fury White.

Are these brands okay or should I just stick with the orignal? I've read a lot of mixed reviews. I'm not sure that it will even matter that much.

New build: http://pcpartpicker.com/p/JLWQ99

There's one more thing that I'd like to ask. Is my psu okay for this build? It was the most recommended one in my last post. I'm asking a second time just to make sure.

Looks fine. One word of caution though, the h440 case is not really intended for beginners, more for advanced users. It has no optical drive, so unless to are comfortable using flash drives or online for everything and use an external optical drive, you may run into problems, especially with things like OS installs if all you have is a disc.

Hm. Is there another 970 besides MSI that you would pick? What part of the MSI is better than the gigabyte? Also, is there by any chance a white colored RAM available that's just as good as the Corsair?

MSI is more compact, quieter, OC well. It's the best card after Galax HOF (white, yep, but more expensive).
No other white RAM that I'm aware of. Tons of good black. Get the Corsair if you are pursuing some theming. Should serve you well.
