This is my new build.

I have bought the NZXT450 case to start with.

This build will be my main entertainment hub and will be in my living room.

I play FSX which is a cpu killer and believe this rig will be able to handle it, therefore can handle most games so have peace of mind there.

My main question is:

1) Have I got a good PSU in EVGA, and is 750W enough for me or too much??
Can anyone recommend better, but not too costly?

2) Have I got a good cooler in the Corsair H100i? Are there better options for a silimlar price?

All other parts I believe are good enough for me. Please comment on the other parts too and if I should change anything. Any changes have to be better than what I have right now.

Thanks

Forgive me, but im a newbie. I dont understand what you mean by my "gpu budget"
Im getting an Asus GTX 980Ti STRIX Video Card for £529.99 or maybe slightly less. I've added it to the link in original thread above.

So I have a good PSU and cooler for this setup?
Would it be worth changing either?

Build seems very good, reliable parts all-round from what I can tell. Go for it!

EDIT: PSU is great, the CPU cooler is a few years old and will probably be outperformed by newer AIO and air coolers. (But honestly the H100i is still great from what I've heard)

What about the Kraken x61 as the cooler nstead of the H100i?
