I have about half of the parts, how does the other half look?

New thread smell. Anyway, I'm going to finally dive in and pick up the rest of my pieces next week, minus the video card of course. I will probably get a GTX 1070 unless AMD throws us something awesome.

What I already have that will go in the box:

i5 6600K
Gigabyte Z170-HD3P
Corsair case
2 TB HDD

What I plan on purchasing:

PSU-EVGA SuperNova 750 B1-http://www.amazon.com/EVGA-SuperNOVA-Modular-Warranty-110-B1-0750-VR/dp/B00K85X23O?ie=UTF8&psc=1&redirect=true&ref_=ox_sc_act_title_1&smid=ATVPDKIKX0DER $65
SSDSamsung 850 EVO- http://www.amazon.com/Samsung-2-5-I...rue&ref_=ox_sc_act_title_2&smid=ATVPDKIKX0DER $89
RAM Corisar Vengeance 2x8GB DDR4 3200MHz http://www.amazon.com/Corsair-Venge...ments=p_n_feature_four_browse-bin:10656894011
Windows 10 OEM- $86

I think the 750 watt might be overkill. Maybe a 650 is enough? I plan on using the SSD for OS and a 2TB HDD for my games. I like the ram since it is 3200 MHz. Thoughts or do these parts look good?

The B1 is an older PSU. The B2 would be a much better option. If you're in the US, you can't go wrong with the B2 750W as it's <$50 after a rebate.

750W is likely overkill, but not a bad idea.

Otherwise, all is compatible.
