Hi all, i'm building my first pc, these are the components that i choose: CPU: I7 6700K, GPU: Palit GTX 1070, COOLER: Noctua nh-d15, MOTHERBOARD :Asus z170a Pro Gaming RAM: 16GB Corsair Vengeance, SSD: 250GB Samsung 750 Evo, HDD:3TB Western Digital Black, LG dvd Writer, PSU:750W Corsair cs Series, 4 fans with blue leds, wifi, CASE: Corsair Carbide Series 300R Windowed. Are these ok? My budget is 1000-1800
 
Solution
The thing that sticks out the most to me is the psu. That is a terrible choice for such an expensive build. Go with anything from Seasonic, XFX, Antec, EVGA's B2, G2, GS, or P2, or Corsair RMx or RMi series.
I'd personally go with something more like this. It's just a little bit over your budget, not by much though.
