Hi there.
I'm building a new PC mainly for gaming, with good life span and without spending too much money on it.

spec:
CPU - i5 4690K (3,5GHz) socket 1150
GPU - MSI GTX970 Gaming 4GB
Motherboard - Asus Z97 - PRO GAMER
Memory - G.Skill 8GB DDR3 1600MHz RipjawsX CL9
SSD - Samsung 850 EVO 250GB SATA III (possibly getting one more later on)
PSU - (need help choosing one)
Cooling - I'll use my old Noctua NH-U14S (I think) CPU cooler and 4 or 5 120mm fans on my case

- Overclock? Probably, but it's not something I expect to do in the next 3 or so years.

1- Does this setup fit in my old CoolerMaster CM690 II case?
2- Can you please recommend a nice PSU with good power efficiency and not that expensive?
3- Feel free to ask anything or to give more suggestions.

Thank you guys!

Here are my answers:

1 - It appears yes, PCPartPicker found not incompatibilities

2 - Here a good choice would be the EVGA SuperNOVA GS 550W 80+ Gold Certified Fully-Modular ATX Power Supply, comes in around the $60 range

3 - I would just bump up the ram speed so that when you overclock later you have some headroom. It is not that much more
