    comp random shut off

    If your computer requires more wattage than the power supply then then computer will crash due to wattage prblems as things wont be able to run properly. A bigger PSU would help especially if you plan on adding anything to the computer.

    help pls with girlfriend build

    Decent budget build. There will be bottlenecks when you start running programs that require a lot resources. This really depends on the games you are playing. You should always be putting most of your money into GPU when gaming. Dont forget to look for deals.

    Can I use an external Hard drive to record my gameplay?

    CPU cooler recommendation?

    Yes I would just go with the Hyper EVO if money is an issue. Newegg has them for $10 off and like you said the paste is the bonus. I personally would go with the phantek but thats my opinion since my budget isnt as tight...
