Looks ok to me, there are some things I would do different, but
it looks good, imho. No mention of power supply though. I did some
reading from manufacturer website, and it just says you have more
options for power supply, but does not tout supplying it....

Good power supply brands to get: Antec, Enermax, OCZ, PC-PowerCooling, Thermaltake, and even Corsair.

For your system, I would definitely get a power supply that is 700watts to 850watts, plenty enough power already.
