Hello, so here it comes, my all new pc! What do you think? I'd like to know your opinion on cpu cooler and PSU - is 520W enough? I'll be having this PC for another 4 years, that's why I chose the H97 chipset, which supports oncoming broadwell cpu's. Oh and what do you think about that case?
Thank you for advices!

I don't know, EVGA 600B is tier 3 in terms of quality on this list, whereas the seasonic is tier 2A.

I fear it won't last long enough or the components are cheaply made.
