Not bad, but there's a few things you can do to make it a bit cheaper.

RAM: 32 GIGs of ram is overkill, I'd recommend at most 16 gig.
PSU: You can downgrade to a good 650 watt, will save the cost.

DO NOT cheap out on your PSU.

32gb of ram is a bit too much tbh but with that power supply he picked up he could upgrade or add another GPU in the future. 750 watts is NOT overkill and is just fine. In fact, 650 watts may be too litle.

650 Watt PSU is completely fine, the 750 is overkill.

This could be overkill, depending on what you do;

If you didn't want to spend as much;

You could spend a bit on a nice mechanical keyboard and mouse, if so then I would get a Corsair M45, MM200 and K70 w/ Brown/Blue switches.

Ladies, please, you both are wrong.

Also, to let both of y'all know, that mobo is not compatible with the CPU. Looks like you two didnt read the full post.

^How did it take 6/7 replies before some realised that an LGA1151 motherboard isn't compatible with LGA1150?

OP- No, it's terrible and incompatible.

I'd grab something like this;

You have a 4790k processor on there which is an lga 1150 socket with an lga 1151 motherboard on there. That won't work together. You need an lga 1150 motherboard with that processor or a skylake processor with that motherboard
