It's a good build. You can overlock that mobo securely with some heatsinks on the VRM's cause of the 4+1 Power Design.

I'd recommend getting a bit more wattage PSU, like 600 W, because it CAN go above 500W I think. Try out an online test for how much W you need.

Also consider an AMD video card instead as it's cheaper for performance and works a little better with the AMD chipset on the mobo than the Nvidia card does.
