Yes
What is your intended use for this build? The more details the better.
It should be able to play AAA titles on maximum settings with 60 FPS. I play first person shooters (insurgency) as well as round based (civ) and real-time strategy games (total war). I am only using a 1080p monitor. But I am planning to upgrade to 1440p or even 4k(unlikely). It should perform well in VR, which was the main reason for choosing the gtx1080.
What is your budget (ballpark is okay)?
1500€ (the price in the pc partpicker list is inaccurate. Right now I would be paying ~ 1650€ [which is still in my price range])
In what country are you purchasing your parts?
Germany

Provide any additional details you wish below.
I haven´t built a pc for quite some time (10 years), which is why I am not overly confident about my choices. This build is meant to be somewhat futureproof, while also being price/performance conscious.
After extensive reading and with help from r/buildapc I have put together my parts list and am now ready to order. I am planning to overclock the cpu and am considering SLI in the future.
Is the 1000W PSU going to be sufficient or is it total overkill even with overclocking, vr and potential SLI?
Since I am still a little uneasy about spending so much on a PC, I would be thankful if someone could take a “last look”.
Maybe I could save some money without sacrificing too much performance and future-proofness.
Maybe there are incompatibilities I did not notice.
Maybe there are still low quality components in my build.
I am thankful for all suggestions and opinions. If you have any questions just ask, I will try to answer them as fast as possible.
A big thank you to everyone who is willing to help!!!!!!!
