£400 build, need confirmation!

Finally got something I think I'm happy with, but a few questions left unanswered!

Is everything fully compatible? Am I good to put Linux on this thing? Is 450w enough? Is there anything that could be improved (or cost cut)?

Here's my planned build.

The i5-4690K and R9 270 are faster and you will have room for OC and CrossFire in future
R9 270 is far faster than 750 Ti and has CrossFire Mode for future proof.
Yes 450W is enought
It will work with Linux just fine

Trouble with the haswell refresh CPUs is the mobos under £50-60 might need a BIOS update before installing the CPU, and that's really not something I'd like to be doing. I had picked the i5 4460 but decided to go for the 4440 for that very reason. I like the look of that GPU though.
