Hi, I'm extremely new to Computer building and pretty much everything that inquires, so when answering this I ask that you please try to like define the words and abbreviations you use. ANYWAY, so I am getting help from my friends in building a gaming PC. I am trying to keep an around $1000 price range ish but I wanted to share my build, gather opinions on it and get some input on the power supply I pick. Here it is:
Processor: Intel Core i5-4660
Graphics Card: Asus Strix Geforce GTX 970 4GB
RAM: (black) Corsair Vengeance (2x4gb) 1600 mghz
Hard Drive: Western Digital Blue 3’5 1Tb
Motherboard: MSI Z97 G45 Gaming (newegg.ca)
That is it for now at least. I was picking a power supply and I got a little lost in how much wattage I should leave for overclocking and other things. This build calculates about 590 watts. SO, I was planning on buying the CS650M Modular power supply from Corsair. I was wondering if this is a good choice and iff leaving about 60 watts for flexibility is enough. Thanks so much
