Gone for a more efficient, better reviewed PSU with more wattage and a longer warranty
GPU has better warranty support (UK RMA centre)
Better monitor - higher refresh rate (makes a huge difference in games) with backlight strobing and much better colour accuracy and contrast
Better wireless adapter

No you don't need an extra one, the Ryzen 1600 comes with a decent heatsink
