Last Thoughts: Picked 850W for my Power Supply because I thought that not only was it a great bang for my buck, but the PSU had mostly top rated reviews. This PSU also has 7 year limited warranty, which is awesome! I also foresee myself upgrading my video card or CPU in 3 or 4 years so therefore PSU would be a long-term benefit.

Nice build but you really don't need 850W. Its a good deal especially with the promo and rebate but you really could do with a 750W just fine and save money. Power consumption is really going down across the boards for CPUs and GPUs. They aren't going to change that either.

EVGA isn't the best when it comes to cooling by any means but they have excellent tech support and if you need an RMA they won't BS about it. You can find much better cases for $30 more that have USB3 and are just better to look at inside and out. Corsair is making really nice cases at an affordable range. Carbide series they call it as the Obsidian is more enthusiast priced.

Everything else looks fine. Nice job.

If you can fit it into your budget, them I would recommend upgrading to the GTX 570.

A 750w psu will do just fine, but here's a modular 850w anyways. But your sinking a lot of money in your psu and cutting yourself short in the gpu area.
