RAM is overkill. I would say 4gb of RAM, 8 at most.
I presume you definitely need all that storage.
Processor cooling is overkill.
Bump PSU upto to a corsair unit.

I'd say drop to 8GB of RAM, 650W Corsair PSU like Technical said, bump it up to silver warranty, and drop the CPU cooler down to the triple copper cooler :)
