Just my 2 cents with the motherboard you could look at the ASUS Hero or Ranger motherboard, PSU you could look at a Corsair RM or HXi or a SuperFlower wattage wise you could get away with a 650 or 750 with the GPU you could go with the ASUS or the MSI are you going to be adding another GPU at all.

But the question is are you going for a Colour scheme build

The other guys on here could come up with something different tho

Well with the PSU you might be better off getting a AXi but they can be pricey or a Corsair AX760 Platinum Power Supply same again if you can get a AX but the AX series is older tho

Are you looking to get custom cables for the PSU

I find black Cables just fine.. Updated the post any thoughts on the GPU?
 
Everyone has a bit of OCD and it's mot every day that you buy a new computer so it must be fast, stable, reliable and the looks are just that important even if it's the inside :)
