this is a reupload because i accidently made it a question.

basically i'm looking to build a gaming pc, it would be my first time ever building a pc and i need some insight, these are the parts i'm looking at and want to be sure they are all compatible, also feel free to let me know if any other parts would be better than the ones displayed.

I also need help choosing a case for around £50-£150

thanks a ton, here are the parts;

i5-7600k
deepcool gammaxx 400 cpu cooler
Asus PRIME B250-PLUS ATX LGA1151 Motherboard
GTX 1070
Crucial 2x8GB RAM
Intel 600p 512GB SSD
1TB HDD
Corsair CxM 750W PSU
 
750W is overkill, 550W should suffice, unless you plan to upgrade to 1080 ti in a few years.
For case, either NZXT or Phanteks are very good. For former, get s340 or s340 elite or phantom. For latter, enthoo pro. Your build is compatible.
 
His build will use maybe 375w maybe even near 400w under load. Every Psu works more efficient at about 50% load. I dont understand why people says it is overkill. And gives more room for upgrades.
But technicaly, yes 550w will suffice.

thanks, i do plan on upgrading to a 1080 and maybe even a 1080ti in the future that's why i chose a 750W PSU, just to future proof it as it's only about £20 more expensive than 550W
