I do not recommend the Corsair VS series PSU.

Cooler needs 160mm clearance to cabinet side panel-

Both parts were more expensive at theitdepot and flipkart. snapdeal had best prices.

That is a really good rig. honestly you will be good for another 2-3 year 4 if you don't mind lowering some setting.
