Will 800W be enough power to attain good performance out of this badboy? or should i go for more. (P.S. I don't plan to OC, mostly because i have no idea how to, but i've heard it can short out your system, etc.) IDK SO LET ME KNOW.

What you have there can easily be powered by a good 550 watt Corsair or Antec PSU. In fact, better a known good brand 550 watt PSU than an 800 watt generic PSU.

oh alright sweet, any other recommendations in regards to processors or Hard drives , basically anything that wont break the bank, but still give me nice performance.

Reply to CchRisS

You only asked about the PSU. The only thing I see wrong with the rest of the build is that you are having someone else build it. :)
