Hi all. This will be my first complete build,all though I have did much with them. I have a build layed out and would like some feed back on it. The only thing I need (unless you all see somthing I'm missing) is a PSU.

A few remarks about what and why I have this build.
Gaming.internet. Not running dual GPUs,OC yes to around 4ghz,no micro MB and have a sound blaster Titanium sound card I will use.

There are a couple of fans,thermal paste I will also get.
If at all posible the PSU could be under $100'

Thanks
 
Thanks for the help.That PSU looks good.This is new territory for me on PSUs. Is the 800 watts for future proofing,or is it the lowest watts that can be used.

future proofing, but with 850 watt i dont think you can overclock if your getting a new gtx 570
 
Heavy overclocks on everything with two 570's could stress an 850W quite a bit, though I think that PSU might handle it. With a single 570, you're perfectly fine.
 
Thanks again for all your help. I am only going to run 1 gpu. From what I have read the 570 not overclocked is a beast. The CPU will be overclocked but by what I have read a mini OC compared to the Hz some are OX the K. As this is my first complete build I am still learning.

Yeah I have seen this psu in a white phanton case.Looks good.
I'm still bouncing back and forth on the color of the case. My fist coice was the red one.Than I saw the white one and looked pretty cool. But I have not ruled out the black one yet.
