Hi, I've picked out all the parts for my new (first) gaming PC.
https://au.pcpartpicker.com/list/gMLXd6

  • CPU: Intel Core i5-7500 3.4GHz Quad-Core Processor
    CPU Cooler: Cooler Master Hyper 212X
    Motherboard: MSI Z270 PC MATE ATX Motherboard
    Memory: Corsair Vengeance LED 16GB (2 x 8GB) DDR4-3200 Memory
    Storage: Crucial MX300 275GB 2.5" Solid State Drive
    Storage: Seagate Barracuda 1TB 3.5" 7200RPM Internal Hard Drive
    Video Card: Asus GeForce GTX 1060 6GB 6GB Strix Video Card
    Case: NZXT S340 (White) ATX Mid Tower Case
Except for the PSU, which I'm not sure what to get... budget wise anything under $140 AUD is fine.
I'm going to be doing mainly 1080p ULTRA gaming, and will be overclocking the GPU and what not, I was thinking the - Corsair CX600 600Watt 80+ Bronze - what are your guys thoughts on this PSU? And is there anything I can get that is better, something preferably Semi-modular or Fully modular would be great...? Thanks!

Thanks dude! Looked at a detailed review on the Antec PSU and it is definitely good, and within budget! I can grab the HCG-750M from my local computer store for $119 AUD. So I will pick that one up most likely. Thanks for the help!! Can't believe I was going to get a tier 4 psu ._.
 
You are most welcome. Actually, the 520W is a better fit and is cheaper. The 750W is not needed and is oversized. And the 1060 does not support dual cards so you don't need that.
