Thoughts on my final build?

[Mannn76]

So, After months of planning, deciding, reading reviews and so on I've finally come up with this.
The last things I've been reviewing have been the Mobo and the PSU,
Just wanted some last thoughts as i'm ordering most of the parts tonight.

probably over your budget

want to overclock?
then pick thermaltake extreme 2 watercooler for only 60$ , i5-4670k+z87 mobo.
the xeon e3 1230 v3 is a i7-4770 without integrated gpu, the benefit over i5-4670/-k is that it has hyper threads

this 144hz, 1 ms benq monitor is realy good, fantastic quality and features, very good reviews ect. but also cost a lot.

r9 280x has a better p/p then gtx 780. but that 780 was just too tempting for me and to use the monitor to its full potential it requires some more power.

I'm not planning on overclocking, and $1500 is my maximum budget. I really just wanted to know if everything looks good and if it's a viable gaming setup. (which from my knowledge it is)

if you dont overclock, your asus hero and the i5-4670k is a bad choice

would go for the seasonic 620, semi modular psu, or the xfx 550w psu.
corsair 300r, for what it offers, the price is kinda high, check out the fractal design arc midi 2, it has a window, nice interior and good structure

Well, i was thinking about overclocking down the road. For now i'm not doing extreme gaming. But i can see myself doing in towards the future.
Also, I've heard seasonic has horrible support and i really liked corsairs RM Series.
And i really don't like the fractals. I've checked them out before.
