i'm planning to build a pc for gaming,3dsmax and photoshop
i wanted to know if you think these components are suitable for me:
cpu:i7 4770
ram:CORSAIR - 8GB(2*4) 1600
hdd:Seagate-SATA 3 - 2 TeraByte / 64mb buffer / 7200 RPM
ssd:samsung 840 evo 120GB
gfx:ASUS - GeForce GTX 760
case:GREEN - X-3
power supply:green GP1000B-OC(green brand might be unfamiliar to you because its just sold in iran)
mobo:asus z87-a
led display:VX229H AH-IPS
and what do you think about 4770k and a higher frequency ram does these affect the performance significantly or just alittle.

ok, the psu is way overkill, step it down to 600 ish. i would get 16gb cuz you are doing photoshop, if you can afford it. also, try to get a gtx 770, and in this case i would not reccomend amd cuz nvidia is better at photoshop stuff. and 1600 ram should be fine, but you can probly find 16gb of 2133 for $150.

so you think 600watts is enough
im asking this because i may do sli or add another hdd or bd drive in future

600 should be fine, but if you wanna sli in the future i would recomend 650-750 watts, and make sure it a good quality too, like seasonic, xfx, antec, etc.

i used plenty power consumption calculators on the web(most of them were made by the psu manufacturers them selves) and they suggested 800 to 1000 watts power supplies so i think those are not accurate enough by the way
you mentioned that its better if i buy 770 rather than 760 but unfortunantly i cant afford that card.
is there any problem with 760 or its good.
tnx for ur replies

the 760 is a great card, and so is the 770, but the 770 is a bit faster, no big deal. and those calculators over estimate quite a bot, a 750 watt good quality psu can run 2 way 760 sli just fine, but make sure it has enough power connectors for the cards :p
