Looks good. Similar to my Skylake build (specs in my sig).

Though, i'm not fond of the sleeve bearing fan used in Cryorig H7.
Reason why: http://www.gamersnexus.net/guides/779-computer-case-fan-bearing-differences

If you also want to have fluid dynamic bearing fan(s) in your CPU cooler then you can go for the same CPU cooler as my Skylake uses. An Arctic Freezer i32 with Arctic F12 PWM PST in push-pull configuration.

Or if you want better cooling performance then i suggest either:
Deepcool Gamer Storm Assassin II,

or Be Quiet! Dark Rock Pro 3,

All 3 CPU coolers use fluid dynamic bearing fans.

Even though Deepcool Tesseract does look nice, it's build quality is low and it would be shame to house your high-end PC in a such low quality case. Here i suggest for you to reconsider the case.
You can go for same case as is used in my Skylake build, a Corsair 760T,

or a more smooth looking Corsair 780T,

If you have the money then you could utilize one of the two M.2 SSD slots on your MoBo in place of your Samsung SSD.
