Ultra's older models were known to be sketchy as a few models were bad. However in the past year or so Ulta's new PSU's in the line have been pretty rock solid from what I know.
 
If you to find a way to save money i cant really help you seeing as my computer set me back £5500 or over $10000. But you could try going for parts which arnt as 'quality' as you have right now, i.e the graphics card + psu.

I don't mean to go against you but I just think you went overboard in terms of parts. care to say why you have so much ram??? the soundcard and watercooling are good and you chose the right gpu although you can buy aftermarket waterblocks which work out cheaper but are quite a lot of hassle
