Can someone check over this build?

It's a budget gaming PC. The video card is coming from another source so is not necessary.

Antec BP550 Plus 550W Continuous Power ATX12V V2.2 Modular Active PFC Power Supply- $80

IMO looks fine except you should probably spend 1$ more a litescribe DVD burner, and you may want to spend 20 for an 870 based motherboard, as they're more futureproof/better overclockers.

Also, what specific stepping of the 630 are you getting? AFAIK it's only C2. A 635 C3 stepping would be worth 3$ more.
