Hey everyone,

I'm planning to build a new PC for gaming and working.

I would appreciate to get any comments on the build including the components, maybe you have more experience with them so i am opened for suggestions.

The build is in PCPartPicker: http://pcpartpicker.com/list/hYQBvV

Thanks ahead!

Update: I could go for the EVGA SuperNova 550W/ 650W but i have to buy it in a different store (getting the rest from two different ones, which means PSU will be from a third store), price would be: EUR 98 for the RM550X, EUR 104 for the EVGA 650W and EUR 94 for the EVGA 550W.

I am not planning on OCing the GPU, maybe the CPU in the future.
 
Solution
CPU COOLER - Eh.. that Noctua is fine, but not any better than the Cryorig below for less cost.
MB - I prefer ASUS or Gigabyte over MSI. The Gaming 5 below also includes WiFi and BT.
MEM - Same specs on the modules below for less cost.
SSD - The EVO is a fine SSD, but the price has been steadily climbing and taking it out of the price / performance value. Check out the Crucial below or the Sandisk X400.
PSU - Good unit, but a bit overpriced. 550w is plenty of power.
