Im building my first gaming pc, got a budget of about £800-1000.

My build atm : http://uk.pcpartpicker.com/user/andy1033/saved/1X3a

Just wandering if the "Corsair Enthusiast 750W 80 PLUS Bronze Certified", 750watts is too much? or too little? and if so what should I get instead.

Also, if there is any feedback on the other parts, that would be very much appreciated, good or bad.

If you are going to SLI in the future, 750 watts may not be enough, but if you have no plans for that, than 500-600 watts will be fine just as long as it's "80 PLUS [Bronze/Gold/whatever] Certified.

For one 660ti, a 500 watt PSU would be fine, for two of them? No way. A single 660ti needs a 450 watt PSU.

Instead of making a new thread, just thought id ask quickly here (couldnt private message for some odd reason), is the samsung 840 pro worth an extra £35 ($53) over the samsung 840 (non-pro) ssd?
