Hello! Planning on buying parts for a new PC next week. Main use is gonna be gaming although I also do some photoshop work.

Here's what I'm currently looking at:

>CPU
i5 4670 @ 3.4ghz
>Video card
ASUS GeForce GTX 770 DirectCU II
>Motherboard
ASUS Z87-PRO
>RAM
8GB CRUCIAL Ballistix Tactical DDR3 PC3-12800 CL8 (2x 4GB)
>SSD
250GB SAMSUNG SSD 840 Series (2.5")
>HDD
2x 1000GB Seagate Desktop HDD ST1000DM003 64MB 3.5" (8.9cm) SATA 6Gb/s
>Power supply
SEASONIC M12II Bronze 650W
>CPU fan
COOLER MASTER Hyper 212 EVO
>Case
Arc Midi R2 Black

What do you people think? And is 650W gonna suffice? I think it should, but I didn't calculate it.

Planning on putting both the OS as well as programs and Steam games on the SSD so I think 250GB will be quite right for the SSD.

I'm a bit too scared when it comes to overclocking anything by the way, so I went with this CPU instead of the K version.
