If you don't use photoshop and other rendering/modeling programs you don't need i7 and 16GB RAM, Xeon E3 1230 V3 is what you need and 8GB RAM would be plenty for almost all regular programs and all games.

An Enermax psu??????????????????????????????????????????????????????????

 

[logainofhades]

Enermax isn't horrible. It is the only PSU with max at the end I could ever recommend. :lol: Also, it got a decent review from jonnyguru. Is it top of the line? I would say no, but it is a decent PSU nonetheless.
