If anybody could give me some tips on the parts I've picked/the build as a whole from personal experience, that'd be awesome!

I think everything is great. But I don't think you need 850w PSU unless you plan on doing SLI. A 650 will do just fine.

Thanks, you sure? I'm intending to overclock the CPU, and I was allowing for say, upgrading other parts in a few years...

You know, manufacturers try to DECREASE the power usage of their products every year - efficiency.
So your upgrades in the future are more likely to need less power. The CPU doesn't use much power, even with an overclock, which only adds a small amount to the power usage.

Sounds logical, I knew the intel chips had been getting more efficient. Cheers, I might get a lower wattage modular instead
