Hi all
I'm seeking some expert advice/comments on the below components which I have managed to scramble together (not yet bought) after a painstaking amount of research.

CPU: Intel Core i7-4770K 3.5GHz Quad-Core - £227.99
CPU Cooler: Noctua NH-D14 65.0 CFM - £64.98
Motherboard: Gigabyte GA-Z87X-UD4H ATX LGA1150 - £129.99
Memory: G.Skill Ripjaws X Series 8GB (2 x 4GB) DDR3-1866 - 58.55
Storage: Samsung 840 EVO 250GB 2.5" SSD - £92.99
Western Digital Caviar Blue 1TB 3.5" 7200RPM - £38.70
Video Card: EVGA GeForce GTX 770 2GB Superclocked ACX - £264.98
Case: Corsair Air 540 ATX Desktop - £98.95
Power Supply: Corsair 760W ATX12V / EPS12V - £119.40
Optical Drive: Pioneer BDR-209DBK Blu-Ray/DVD/CD Writer - £51.92
Operating System: Microsoft Windows 8.1 (OEM) (64-bit) - £79.89
Monitor: Asus VX238H 23.0" - £140.70
Wireless Adaptor: Asus PCE-AC68 802.11a/b/g/n/ac PCI-Express x1 - £63.22
Basically, I've never built a PC myself but I want to get stuck in and take ownership of the whole process. So really what I'm looking for is whether I'll have any compatibility issues with the above, and as I'm also keen on playing around with overclocking, do I have sufficient cooling? This will be my main PC so have I overlooked anything/missing any essential components? (I do already own a keyboard and mouse).
Any other useful comments/feedback would also be really appreciated.
I should note that I'll be using the system predominantly for high-end gaming, and I'm trying to make it as future-proof as possible. I'm willing to spend maybe another £100-£200 if I'm likely to get a substantial improvement to the rig, and further improve its longevity.
Thanks for taking the time to read, and your comments.
