Games I would play: Diablo 3, StarCraft 2, probably Dragon Age 3 and some modern MMOs.
I prefer a modular PSU and I was deciding between Antec HCG-520M and Seasonic M12II-520 when I saw the Seasonic 620 is just a few bucks more than the 520 one (Newegg).
For the graphic card, I prefer Nvidia but the AMD ones seems to be a better bang for the buck? I'm not sure. I could also wait for a few days to see how the new AMD card hold up?
Open to all suggestions that will fit my build. Thanks
