DDR3 1600 CL7 is faster than DDR3 2400 CL11, while keep the voltage 1,5V
better brand for PSU, XFX is made by seasonic

That PSU is a painted rebadged TR2 I would highly suggest avoiding it, there are much better options in that price range. You also dont need 850w, you would only need that much of you planned on SLI, but where the motherboard doesn't support SLI I'm guessing you are not. So here's what I'd suggest for a PSU

If you really want 850w heres a better option than the Thermaltake
