I plan on overclocking. Do I need EVGA 750W 80+ Gold Certified Fully-Modular ATX Power Supply ?

Thanks

Yeah this PSU does work for this build but one extra thing to mention is that you have to remove drive bays for the gpu because the card 305mm in length while the case supports 300mm.

Is that complicated? Never built a computer before. Should I get a bigger case?
 
It is not complicated at all. Its quite easy actually. I would recommend once you get the case you look at the manual or check on the Internet. Watch some How-To videos on PCs it will help you and teach you something you might have never done.
 

But I won't get in a situation where I have to remove so many that I won't be able to use the drives that I'm getting?
Just want to be sure, I know there are a lot of drive slots...
