Nice build. Get a H97 board as it is a Haswell Refresh CPU so you don't have to perform a BIOS update.

Go with a Seagate Barracuda (worth the extra money- maybe a dollar or so extra).

Get a PSU from Antec, EVGA, SeaSonic, Thermaltake or XFX.

Ok i just added the same moterboard as before but the h97 version, i picked the Barracuda 1Tb for (1$ less than the other one :p  ), and for the psu i checked the reference chart at Newegg for the quality of psu's and it was in the second best class, way enough for me. Do you think its ok if I keep it?

Yes. But instead of the Newegg PSU chart here's a better one.

Thank you very much for the chart, I checked it and the psu is still in the second best class, so is it a good unit?
