I am building my first gaming pc and i would really like to know if all these parts will run together smoothly before i buy them?

CPU: intel i5 4690k
Motherboard: MSI Z87-GD65
Graphics card: GeForce GTX 760
RAM: 8gb corsair vengeance pro
Hard Drive: Western Digital 500GB 7200 RPM
Case: Zalman Z11 plus

I havent decided on a PSU yet... im not sure what watt to get?

thanks :)

So far so good.

Obviously a more powerfull GPU would be better, but you have a good balance on parts and the 760 will play anything fairly well, not highest end games on ultra with max fps good, but still pretty good.

As far as what psu, a user posted a pretty good tier list of psus:

Might look to the Z97 version of the mobo, or better yet, something like the Asus Z97-A or Pro, I won't touch MSI due to their poor QC
