Hello to anyone who reads this. I was just wondering about this PC build that I plan on getting soon. I was wondering if all the parts are okay? I don't really have anyone to ask for advice so I've been pretty much doing it on my own but yeah. Not planning on overclocking or anything and only doing 1080p for now. So yeah just wondering about things like, will the 550W power supply be enough, is the motherboard good for not overclocking, just general noob questions lol.

Here's the build: https://au.pcpartpicker.com/user/LaughingCat/saved/

Also I'm pretty set on the budget. Not looking to spend too much more. And this is all in AUD(Australian).
Thanks!

you can get a 6GB GTX1060 for 10-20$ more which is far superior to the 970 (in fact is on par with a 980 with better dx12 support)
also you can get a 8GB Rx480 at the same price as the 970 which as well will perform better than the 970 especially i dx12 titles
The PSU is absolute garbage, esoecially for that price.
See if you Can Pick up an EVGA Supernova GS/G2/P2 (best case)
Seasonic S12II/M12II
Corsair Rmx/Rmi/Cmx

370$ on a 970 doesn't strike me as a good deal either
A Rx480 should around the same price and will give you better performance
Or even a GTX1060

Hellfires build is much better although his PSU is kinda bad as well

I tweaked the build to AUD and it's a lot more than the one I was going to get.
