CRASH first time build

Im ready to break the ice and build my own pc and was looking for advice on components. i have selected the following

mobo:Asus sabertooth x79
cpu:i7 3930k
ram:16gb corsair vengance
cooling:corsair h80
ssd:intel 320 series or similar
psu:corsair gs600
case:corsair carbide series 500r

will use my current graphics card for the time being an asus eah5570
and buy a dvd rewriter.
hopefully this will give me a system that i can upgrade at a later date ie water cooling rig,more ram and graphic cards

You won't need more than 16 gigs of RAM.

Maybe reconsider replacing the GS with a TX.

Newegg.com - CORSAIR Enthusiast Series TX650 V2 650W ATX12V v2.31/ EPS12V v2.92 80 PLUS BRONZE Certified Active PFC High Performance Power Supply

The Corsair H80 is already a liquid cooling system.
