High quality made by Super Flower, semi-modular and future proof. It's overkill but you won't need another one for a long time and the price is good compared to 550 watt units.

Also, What do you think of the build?

The build looks fine. Any changes would only be nit picking so no sense in that. It should be able to play at 1080P on medium to high settings easily. You could sacrifice the SSD for a better video card but that's up to you.

http://au.pcpartpicker.com/part/corsair-power-supply-cp9020073 should be more than enough power, although I doubt the wisdom of building a sub-300W system like this. The cheapest power supplies that are modular or semi-modular are still a full 10% of your budget (At least on the Australian part picker), not to mention some other serious short-comings, such as the HDD. Pay a full dollar more, and get a hard drive with twice the capacity and four times the cache, or if you're really stuck on Barracuda's, 3 dollars will get you the same thing from them. Thirty-seven dollars now doubles your SSD size, forty gets you a 960 with 4GB of video memory

There are a lot of spots here where if you were willing to spend a little more (Or even just downgrade windows, as you are very unlikely to need the hardware support features of pro with a build of this level, however you may want the language support/remote desktop support/ETC), you can get a lot more. Take a look, and re-evaluate your budget and component choices. You may want to spend more now to save later.

yep completly right with the HDD I actually dont know why I chose that one, I was actually looking for the WD blue 1TB...Whoops

This seems alot better actually since Im kinda going for the blue and black theme and I already have a windows 7 Professional install disk and OEM key so Im just using that anyways.

Thanks

Avoid the poorly performing BX200 SSD. If you want crucial stick with BX100 or MX200. Samsung 850 EVO is still the best choice.
