tell us your budget, and where do you live

you deserve more than that build, because there are newer items with similar price atm

That PSU is not the best. Coolermaster has poor quality PSUs. Stick with Antec, XFX, Corsair, Seasonic.

In my country Macedonia there is no official sellers of these stuff there are only PREMIUM RESELLERS and parts are the most expensive stuff so i managed to get my eye on these... and already got the 7970 asus one for 50 euro discount...

Im ashamed to tell you that my budget is 900 euros ... i know everything here in macedonia is a ripoff and i know i could get better parts in other country's and even better prices for better parts

Yes , ok then. My friend also suggested CORSAIR for me but it was 700W one... so i didnt know what to do.Plus im not sure if 700W one will handle this setup ? what do you think ?

700w will be way more than enough. Not a problem at all. 650w could easily run this system as well.
September 28, 2013 7:44:38 AM

If the 700w is 80+ certified, it should suffice.

If you could, get the 4th generation i5 CPU. Same clock speed, overclock to 4.5Ghz, a slight improvement in performance. Around $220

Everything else is good but you cannot overclock the CPU. It needs to be a K series CPU to be able to overclock.

i forgot to write it down... so much sleepless nights im mashing my head at the desk...

Here is the exact name : Intel i5-3570K Ivy Bridge 3.40GHz...
Btw it says 4 cores and 4 threads ... does 4 cores mean its quad or smtg ? Pls explain if you dont mind :) 
And what do you think of CHIFTEC as a PSU ? is it any good ?

Never heard of CHIFTEC, but it's better to go with a trusted brand.
And yes, it's a quad core CPU.

Don't sweat it, if you need help, stay calm and ask questions on the forums. Mashing your head on the desk doesn't give you a higher OC.
I've tried it before :)
