Hello everyone! I am planning to make a computer this summer and wanted to know if everything would be compatible.

My parts include:

CPU: Intel Core i7-4790K 4.0GHz Quad-Core Processor
CPU Cooler: Cooler Master Hyper 212 EVO 82.9 CFM Sleeve Bearing CPU Cooler
Motherboard: MSI Z97-GAMING 7 ATX LGA1150 Motherboard
RAM: G.Skill Sniper Series 8GB (2 x 4GB) DDR3-1600 Memory
Storage I (Hard Drive): Western Digital BLACK SERIES 2TB 3.5" 7200RPM Internal Hard Drive
Storage II (Solid-State Drive): Samsung 840 EVO 120GB 2.5" Solid State Drive
GPU: MSI GeForce GTX 970 4GB Twin Frozr V Video Card
Case: Corsair 200R ATX Mid Tower Case
Power Supply: SeaSonic G 550W 80+ Gold Certified Semi-Modular ATX Power Supply
Optical Drive: LG GH24NSB0 DVD/CD Writer
Operating System: Microsoft Windows 8.1 OEM (64-bit)
Monitor: Asus VS248H-P 24.0" Monitor

Some compatibility questions I have include:

1. Will the power supply be enough? (I was told that 550W would be enough for the build)

2. Does everything look compatible? (Like, is the RAM compatible with the motherboard?)

3. Any part change recommendation? (Mostly concerns RAM, monitor, storage)

Thank you for the help everyone!
 
PSU will be enough as long as you don't OC.
And I'd suggest that, if you're not doing video editing, to not grab the i7. And if you can grab the NZXT Noctis 450 (black and red) that case is DEVILISH. So awesome. Very modular. Can't argue with that black/red color theme.
