[NEW BUILD] FIRST BUILD NEED ADVICE

[tanktop]

G'day Folks,

This is my first ever build from scratch and after the research i have done, i have picked the following parts. I will be using it for gaming on both monitors and whatever else. I know its probably a bit more powerful than i need but i like doing things well the first time

Please let me know if it will all fit together and run smoothly because currently that is my biggest worry. Also, if there is any extra insider knowledge to help me set it up? If I buy everything on this list will i have what i need to put it together? Am i missing anything?

Everything was looking great until I read Cooler Master PSU

Cooler Master PSU are not highly recommend!! I would feel better about your build seeing an Antec, Corsair or SeaSonic PSU listed. These three are pretty much the Top Tier in PSU's. If you want the option to run SLI, I would suggest upping your PSU to a 750W unit.


As for building a PC help, I would read through these two following threads. They will help you through the process.

When builiding for your first pc take your time, double check everything. Do a bench test before
