i stuck with a 750w psu as i assume you are intending to go to sli in the future and kept the red and black colour scheme you appeared to have.

Actually I hadn't considered sli I'm a complete novice although I've owned and repaired many systems this is my first from ground up build. I definitely went red and black and am trying to keep the theme. I bought everything so I hopefully wouldn't have to replace anything in the next couple of years to come.
