Proper PSU for new build.

[luis_f21]

Hello guys, i'm new to this site and overall new to pc building. This is going to be my first build and i am not planing on doing another one soon just because my time of play is very limited. Currently i have only a 13" MacBook Pro 2012 with the Intel HD 3000 witch i must say gives you little no no play options, so i just want a little more, here is my build but is missing some components i'm not sure how to choose, being the PSU because in the short future i plan to add a proper GPU, most likely a HD7790 and Cooler.

Please give me your thoughts and suggestions, i just wont change the case or the CPU, all else is up to change. Thanks, and sorry english in not my first language.

A quality 400W PSU would be more than enough.

- Rosewill CAPSTONE-450
- Antec HCG-400

Several other quality PSUs could meet your requirements.

How about the cooler fan for he CPU? I've never done overcloking but would be nice to have the option, will the one provided by the manufacturer be enough?? Also one last thing this just came to my mind. Is Windows 8 good for a new build?? Or should I use Windows 7

According to http://www.legitreviews.com/article/2047/18/ the stock cooler is good for a very mild overclock. The Cooler Master Hyper 212 EVO is a popular choice for overclocking and its inexpensive.

Windows 8 is nice, but it takes time getting used to its interface. If you need to buy a new OS, then read professional Windows 8 reviews and then decide if you want it or not.
