Absolutely solid build. Go for it! There are some who would recommend a 7600K, but that's just for the overclocking option (which i personally never liked, cuz it renders warranty void).
Recommendation-You may choose to forego the SSD and just go for the Seasonic 80+ Gold 650 watt PSU. An SSD can always be added down the line, but it's better if you leave better headroom for meeting power supply requirements.
Then again, since the difference between 2 PSU's is not much (10-12 bucks), you can even keep the SSD and get the 650 watt over the 550 watt.
