Any reason why you chose AMD? I chose intel because I think they have the edge over AMD CPU's.
Also is the PC just for gaming? If so I don't think 16GB of RAM is needed. Here the motherboard and PSU can take xfire if you want to buy another 7850 in the future.

Swanky's build looks good, I'd upgrade the CPU cooler to the super quiet one.
