You have a lot of good units listed. I'd say go with any of them except for the Corsair. Everything else is great. Personally I'd opt for either of the Antec PSUs the Cooler Master V is a great unit too.

My AMD is fine without any issues. I can't say much for the current gen of R9 GPUs but I'm sure it's fine. I haven't read of many issues since the release of the 15.11 driver version.

Of the listed PSUs I would take the Antec TP-750C over the others if you don't mind it being non-modular. According to reviewers it has the best voltage regulation (0.4%) of them all. After that I would go for the V750, and the HCG-750 as all pretty pretty darn equal. I would honestly just choose the cheapest of the 3.

They trade blows in most games. Some games Nvidia has the edge, others the AMD has the edge. In general I'd say at 1080p the 980 performs better, but at 1440p or higher the 390 is a little better. But they are so darn close it hardly makes a difference. This article compares MSI's 390 vs a 980:

Given that you can get the Sapphire Tri-X for $368 after promos: http://pcpartpicker.com/part/sapphire-video-card-100381oc2l I'd say it's an easy call. It will work great with one of those Antec, CM, or Seasonic PSUs.
