As N3rdR4ge said, its overkill. NOt to mention, very ineffective build.

Why 64Gb ram? I think its useless for i7-7700k even 16Gb is already too much for most cases except rendering or video edit. Even online video editing online 4k only need 32Gb. Though your cpu will already bottlenecked it.

Why 2Tb single ssd? Your motherboard support M.2 ultra. Buy 2 piece of 1Tb M.2 ultra and sue Raid to combine and double the speed. Same price, double the speed. There a bit risk of raid0 but I think your SSD will have long live.

Why i7-7700K? With your almost unlimited budget, why not go directly with i7-6900K or even i7-6950X. Although its an older generation...

i see no issues, but what are you using this for? it seems like overkill.

also, why all custom parts on pcpartpicker? you know you can find all the parts, add them and just change the price? it also doesnt show us exactly what you are getting like "seasonic 750w".

I am sorry with my direct answer. Its just that unbalanced build such as 64Gb ram will only hurt you as it will mostly sit quietly considering the amount of money you pull. And make use of your M.2 sockets.
