At least get a better PSU. I'd have done a lot of it differently but you've already bought some parts so it's not worth changing much now, unless you have extra dolla. I'd change the cooler for an Enermax LiqTech 240 fo' sho'. I'd get a different mobo as well.

Better PSU and cooler and you have SLI support.

Also what is the system being used for as there may be better hardware options.

And if you haven't already got the Case I'd swap the case to one that supports a 280mm RAD and get a NZXT Kraken X61

Pretty much just for gaming, and maybe messing around on other programs.

Absolutely no need for an i7, i5 will be fine.
