Hey guys, I'm finalizing my first big build! Thanks to everyone that has helped already!

The monitors have been bought already so I'm not including them. Mostly looking for feedback on the cooler and mobo and included the other parts for reference. I live next to a Microcenter that has better deals than anywhere online, except for the 1080 which Amazon beats. I'm pretty flexible on budget.
