The VS PSU series are very low quality, the power supply is the most important (heart) of the system and could possibly ruin your other parts under a heavy load such as gaming.The power supply is around 300w over what the power consumption is estimated to be.
It would be plenty for the build & overclocking if desired.Would the 550 that you sent me for sure be enough? And if it isn't and I have to go another route, how would this do?

You can save yourself money on Windows here:Those guys aren't idiots, they are highly knowledgeable, experienced builders and the advise they gave you in the other thread is exactly correct. That 5400rpm drive is not a good choice. It will severely hamstring the performance of your system.
The rest of the build is fine, but that drive is not. This would be much better, whether you can afford it or not makes no difference on the fact that you will literally be installing a problem if you were to use that drive for the OS and game storage because it is so slow. Not only is it a HDD, but it is a SLOW hard drive.
This, would be much better. By MILES.
SSD for the Operating system. 3TB 7200rpm drive for game and personal file storage.

Ok here's my list:This is the highest I can go in terms of price range and I was wondering if it would do me fine for a long term gaming setup? I've had some idiot critique me on every aspect of this build and suggest me a build worth $300 more, so I was wondering if anyone with more experience in the field could enlighten me a bit more.

Don't forget to factor in the applicable taxes on the parts. People keep forgetting that when buying parts. You may need to change some parts when you finalize your parts list.This is the highest I can go in terms of price range and I was wondering if it would do me fine for a long term gaming setup?
