For your 3D work the I7 is the better choice but a none K does not overclock. The Seasonic X750 is about the best PSU you can buy but looking at a rig with a single GPU then 750 watts are an overkill. For gaming the GTX460 1GB is superior to the GTX550Ti.
All components are compatible when you narrow down your choices.
