Looks fine to me. I'm assuming everything else like case and cooling and optocal drives and hard drives will be scrapped and are appropriate from the old build?

 

[donjonson]

yes all other required parts will be coming from my current computer

Looks very nice, but for that much money I'd definitely get a better PSU.
I know Antec PSU's are good, but everything else you have is high end so why only get a mid range PSU?

 

[donjonson]

what psu would you reccomend for a similar price?

i can recommend fsp's epsilon series. i have no experience with other brand besides TT and dont recommend that. fsp has been powering my system fine so far
