Hello all, thank you for your time to read my post or for any suggestions. Im almost done ordering my parts. All i need to decide on now is the power supply and the cpu cooler, and gpu.

I like what i have chosen but i need some of your expert opinions. Im interested in the swiftech h220x but pcpartspicker doesnt show it. Unless i search for it. Now, would my psu be enough if i decided to add a vid card down the road, i ask because this case has 3 big fans and along with a radiator and maybe adding a gpu cooler to the mix i wonder if it would be enough. Thanks for any help

Also, I notice alot of the tear 1 psu's still have quite a few negative feedbacks. Either cords are stiff and too short, or DOA. How can i minimize the risk of cords being long enough and not getting a DOA psu?

The ones ive been interested in are : corsair ax 860, seasonic x 850, the one listed above and xfx core series.

well, their sold out on newegg, any other suggestions?
 
You can buy extention cable if you need them . The problem isnt really the psu , its the oversize cases with psu's mounted at the bottom . Usually the only extension you might need is the 8 pin EPS connector thats at the top of the mb by the cpu socket

Corsair HX ?
Anything by seasonic
