change the 770, to a 780 better for the future proofing of the comp

An Antec 620W PSU would be a better choice.

Also agree with above, 3GB 780 instead of 4GB 770.

Try and get a samsung SSD also, the EVO's are very quick and reasonably priced.

Do you NEED 16gb of RAM or a soundcard?

I do large format graphics aswell so the ram helps

given you've got an ssd in there i'd probably save a wee bit by having the other hdd a normal 7200rpm drive instead of a 5400RPM hybrid.

As everyone has said so far:

SSD: Samsung 120GB Evo
HDD: Samsung 2TB 7200rpm
PSU: Antec 620W HCG
GPU: GTX 780

Scrap the soundcard.

Nice case, I love mine, however would probably spend it on a NZXT H630 if I had the chance to go back. Some features I would like to see the NZXT has and the CM Storm doesn't.
