Looks good to me, the only thing I'd suggest changing is the Firecuda drives, you wouldn't get any benefit from them as you've an SSD as a primary drive so they'll just be extremely expensive 7200rpm drives. I'd lower down to the standard 7200rpm HDD (seagates I believe and very good).

It's a blinding spec, should keep you very happy for some time. The GTX1070 will be able to power that monitor on full settings for quite a while.
