please avoid coolermaster psus... I've never seen anything good about them. corsair, antec, xfx, seasonic are far more reliable (there are some questionable psus in their lineups, but generally those companies actually care enough to make something that will last) at 1k spend and with a k series gpu, i would invest in a serious cpu cooler... like an nh-d14 or a h80i or even an h100i.

I've had a 500 watt psu from cooler master its been good for the past 3 years lol

i'm glad. i'm not saying they make nothing but junk. just that they're most certainly on the bottom rung of the psu makers with silverstone and a few other junk psu makers.

Here is a much better optimized build for gaming. Essentially I dropped the CPU down to a i5-4670k and spent the extra dough on a much better GPU. http://pcpartpicker.com/p/1CW2M

Hm, If I switch to a Corsair 600W PSU and get the 770 would the powersupply have enough power?

PS. I have x2 250gig HD's I want to get an SSD for the OS+Main Game and I don't use any optical drives (cd)
