As Lethal said, get a better PSU, It might be fine now, but it's always better to over extend just incase for future upgrades

Also if you're spending that much on a CPU Air cooler, you might as well go water cooled at this point. Something like the Corsair Hydro series.

I also don't see a SSD on that list. If you're spending that much on a build, get your self a SSD or two. Nothing helps PC performance like a good SSD. Even with a solid build, without a SSD you might notice some stutter in games like Arma.

#1: That Processor is overkill for anything involving gaming. Arma doesn't properly utilize multi-core processors (and is dogshit with hyperthreading). If that is your goal, save yourself some money.

I'd honestly recommend going with a 750W PSU, just ti give yourself some wiggle room later on down the line. But that's just me.

Motherboard is likely overkill... But with M2, DDR4 compatibility, and 8x SATA, I can;t really say I don't blame you.
