Hi experts,

In need of your advice.
I'm looking to build a PC for semi-casual gaming with the below specs, With the graphics card stated, is the Seasonic 520w PSU enough for this setup? I won't be OC-ing the CPU or GPU, will just run it at stock..

Asus H81i-Plus Mini ITX + i5-4440
Gigabyte r9 280x OC 3x Windforce
1TB HDD WD 3.5" Caviar Blue 7200rpm
Crucial m500 240gb SSD
Crucial 8gb 1600mhz
CM Elite 130 M-ITX case
Seasonic M12 520W

Thanks in advanced!

Since you are not going to OC and have good quality 520W psu, it will be enough!

Thank you. I've decided to go for the MSI GTX 760 2gb OC edition instead.. So that should be good too!

Yeah that combo(760+ i5) will provide you with little overclocking headroom for 760 too!
