Buddy you are powering a very demanding system right there, I would seriously think of switching it out for a better one. Dont want ath 1300 dollars to go to waste just because of a psu.

Other then that everything looks great.

Plan on overclocking? Great great system for it. Love the mobo.

That is very risky - you spend $1300 and trust it to a single rail ATX 1.x power supply with only 15 amps on the +12v rail? I'd get it out of there right now and get a proper dual rail ATX 2.0 unit. You are NOT going to get a quality power supply that meets PCI-E specs in any case that costs much less than $100.

Here's the cheapest power supply I would trust in that rig with those specs:
