New build around $700.00 opinions welcome !

I would change the PSU. That unit is average at best. Antec, Seasonic, XFX is what you want. 500w is more than enough. Have a look at the XFX550. It is AMAZING quality for a great price.

The case is not great. Have a look at the NZXT 210 elite. It is better and the same price.
