What is your budget?
Also if you are going with a pre-configured cooling kit you will need a coolant.

Unless you do heavy video editing 32GB Ram aren't necessary.
A 650W PSU is more than you'll need
Lose the thermal compound, the one included is sufficient

As for cases​, it depends on what you're looking for.
A stylish all glass case? Look at the anidees crystal or the Corsair crystal
Maximum airflow? Phanteks Enthoo series
Silent? Thermaltake F51 or BeQuiet Silent Base or NZXT Phantom or Fracal Design Define/R5
- a bit of everything: NZXT H series, Phanteks P400S

Important question: WHAT are you going to use your PC for?

* IF * Just Gaming and maybe lightly threaded workloads, stick with the Intel build

* IF * Gaming + streaming and/or heavily threaded workloads, go with a Ryzen 1700 build

Ryzen gives 90-95% if 7700k performance in most games, with some improvement to come as devs have time to work with it and optimize. But it gives 1.5-2x 7700k performance in heavily threaded workloads like video capture/edit/encoding, depending on the apps being used.

So this is a time where your use case for your PC DOES matter when trying to determine the best build options.

Why? Ryzen isn't perfect for the time being, I would wait until AMD gets all the bugs worked out of it before I'd say it's a purchase. I would stick with Intel for the time being. It's definitely a huge step in the right direction over FX but it's not entirely perfect.
