New PC Build

Solution
Added a better quality PSU with higher wattage in case you decide to run SLI. 32 Gb's of RAM is not necessary on a gaming system and overkill. You should up it to 3200 speed as that is the current sweet spot in price/performance. I'm also not to sure about the quality of the case, but it's not really critical. A Fractal Design R5 would have been my pick for this level of build.

The NEX PSU lineup is usually regarded as lower in quality, you may want to reconsider that part.

The graphics card is 267mm, the case only holds up to 260mm, and is not large enough to host. You should choose a different case.
 
A very nice build.
I have two suggestions:

1. If you want 32gb, buy it in one matched kit.
Ram is sold in kits for a reason.
A motherboard must manage all the ram using the same specs of voltage, cas and speed.
Ram from the same vendor and part number can be made up of differing manufacturing components over time.
Some motherboards can be very sensitive to this.
That is why ram vendors will NOT support ram that is not bought in one kit.
It is safer to get what you need in one kit.
It will cost less too. Skylake is dual channel only, so there is no performance value in 4 sticks.
Here is the equivalent:

2. 14nm skylake runs cool. No liquid cooling is needed. A $30 cryorig H7 will do the job.
For the best, look at the noctua NH-U12s or U14s.
My canned rant on liquid cooling:
------------------------start of rant-------------------
You buy a liquid cooler to be able to extract an extra multiplier or two out of your OC.
How much do you really need?
I do not much like all in one liquid coolers when a good air cooler like a Noctua or phanteks can do the job just as well.
A liquid cooler will be expensive, noisy, less reliable, and will not cool any better
in a well ventilated case.
Liquid cooling is really air cooling, it just puts the heat exchange in a different place.
The orientation of the radiator will cause a problem.
If you orient it to take in cool air from the outside, you will cool the cpu better, but the hot air then circulates inside the case heating up the graphics card and motherboard.
If you orient it to exhaust(which I think is better) , then your cpu cooling will be less effective because it uses pre heated case air.
And... I have read too many tales of woe when a liquid cooler leaks.
google "H100 leak"
-----------------------end of rant--------------------------

Your pc will be quieter, more reliable, and will be cooled equally well with a decent air cooler.

The problem with the case, is it absolutely has to be blue. Any ideas? Also, I will be sticking with the 32 GB of RAM, the PC's purpose, is not just for gaming. Gaming is a purpose, but not the only.

I have done my research on the liquid cooler, and have found mostly good results, but okay.

Um.... The case supports a GPU of 290 MM with drive cages.... and up to 410 MM without drive cages.....
