Looks good, the CPU cooler won't be bothered by the RAM, I just checked. Your SSD is 60$ over the other ones but brings Assassin's Creed 3 so there's no real difference unless you already have AC3.

If you do: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E168...

Get GTX 670, the difference from the 680 is very little, or you can also get the 7970.
Not sure about PSU but I think its right.
