A GTX690 is a GTX690, there is no "downgraded" version (especially as its named as an ASUS card).

The system will be well tested for "heat" and "stability" before its shipped.

You will want to change the cpu to the i5-3570k as well.

you only need an i7 if you do a lot of video editing 3d modelling and such

depends on what you want it for, i have same chip and play games but do you it for other stuff, for gaming it's a good chip, most will say it's not needed and a i5 would do, but that's your call not there's
