I' buying
MSI Gaming GeForce GTX 1080 8GB plus
Corsair RMx Series, RM1000x, 1000W.
Only thing is I can't figure out what CPU goes with it I was planning to buy
Intel Core i7-7800X Processor

I'm i doing the right choice or doing something wrong with my new setup?

RM550W is a good one. You should be fine power wise. By "bio" I assume you mean a new motherboard? I still think that's a bad idea. first, your current board can support that CPU. Second, you might think you won't have to update in the future, but Intel is constantly changing their boards. With the 8 series, even though the socket didn't change you still need to use a new board. 8700 won't run on a 270, but will run on a 370 even though they are the same socket. By buying a new board you are literally just throwing money away. Next upgrade will require a new board. Doesn't matter if you stay with Intel or switch to AMD. Sucks, but that's how it is.
