Building my first gaming PC, need help deciding on a power supply. And I wanted some input on my parts, looking to see if there any better options than what I have chosen that are in the same price range.

-Rosewill THOR V2 Gaming ATX Case @ $129.99
-ASUS M5A99X EVO R2.0 AM3+ Motherboard @ $122.99
-AMD FX-8350 Black Edition Vishera 8-Core 4.0GHz @ 179.99
-Cooler Master Hyper 212 EVO - CPU Cooler @ $34.99
-G.SKILL Ripjaws X Series 8GB @ $63.99
-ASUS GTX750TI-OC-2GD5 GPU @ $149.99
-Western Digital Blue 1TB 7200RPM HDD @ $54.99
-Rosewill CAPSTONE-750 750W Continuous PSU @ $79.99
-Samsung DVD drive, and I will be running Windows 7

My main question, is if there is a cheaper power supply that can perform as well as the one I selected. But I am also open to all other suggestions as long as they are in the same price range.

Check to see what the gpu requires then just add about 100 watts on top of that to be safe. Thats what ive always done. So if the card says it needs 650 watts id go with at least a 700 watt psu.
