Nothinf to say, really, nice build, but you will probably run out of those 500GB of storage soon. Maybe buy an HDD as well?

It depends on what you want to actually do with your build. From a general perspective though, I would say that even an entry level liquid AIO is more than enough to cool a non-overclocked CPU. It might depend if will be gaming on your rig or not, but that's more the GPU's job, not CPU's.

Thanks for the reply.
Mostly I will use it for gaming,but i want it to be at the lowest temp i could get for that price as i struggled with that in my previous build .
Also I'm thinking of changing the case to the cooler master 700P
 
on the evga card you may want to swap it out to another brand. they had to drop a firmware update on there cards as there issue with heat and there cards vrm. some of there higher end cards have caught on fire. there are youtube videos about it. also nvidia in a few weeks dropping there faster and newer gpu. i would use the funds for the gpu you have now for the newer nvidia gpu when it drops.
