This will be my first full build. I am in Japan, so research took a while, but I have assembled the following list of parts. I am ordering all of these off of a Japanese site called Kakaku, so some of the parts may be Japanese versions, but I have chosen the ones that were well-reviewed and popular. Listed after some components are additional specs.
CPU: AMD FX-6300
GPU: GTX660 (Size: 111x241mm [Height x Width])
RAM: Kingston 8GB KVR16N11/8 DDR3-1600
HDD: Western Digital WD10EZEX 1TB SATA600 64MBcache 7200rpm
SSD: Silicon Power 32GB MLC SP032GBSS3V55S25 (for OS)
BD: LG Blu-Ray 16x BH14NS48
PSU: Corsair 500W CX500M CP-9020059-JP (Size: 150x140x86mm)
Total cost: 81,000JPY, or about $800USD
Questions:
1. Am I going to have heating problems? Do I need to buy a fan, too?
2. Newegg voltage calculator said I needed about 424W, so will 500W be enough?
3. What about the +12V rails and all that stuff, do I need to worry about that?
4. Do I need to worry about getting "shielded cables" because my case is so small?
5. Any other comments/tips before I order this stuff?
