If you really need the 32gb of ram go for it and I agree the 980 or 970 would be a better choice for this build what is your budget?

If you will be gaming on this PC 32 or 16gb RAM is pointless as 8GB is enough, heavy video editing will make use of more RAM so if you will be doing that a lot go with 16GB. The PSU is also stupidly overkill and a lower wattage one will be more power efficient under load than a 1200w one.

4 way? As in SLI (multiple GPUs) And I don't know much about watercooling but enough to know that a couple extra fans and a pump don't require a PSU like that.
