need help with building a new desktop pc

Solution
I would make a couple changes here.

- Change the Seagate drive to a Western Digital or something else. Seagate's are notorious for failing, especially when they're overheated. I worked for a data center where all the owner bought was Seagate's cause they were cheap and we probably went through 6-8 a week.

- Get a power supply with more wattage. I would go up to 650W to be honest with you, you just want to make sure you have that little extra horsepower to assure it won't fail under stress.


Other than that, everything else looks good.
