Fellow Reader,

I have ordered parts for my next upgrade. Being a fan of AMD, I want to try intel. I liked it so planned for my an intel, MSI , SLI, OC system , I call it "Ullyr Primus". Anyways have a look and feel free to correct me please as I am a beginners to building a PC.

Current System
CPU: intel i5 4670K have reached 4GHz with OC Genie 4
RAM: Corsair 8GB 1600MHz
GPU: PNY GTX 760 2GB
PSU: powercool 650W 80+ Bronze
SSD: San Disk 120GB + Moshkin 480GB
HDD: 1TB
MoBo: MSI Z87 GD41 PC Mate
OS: Windows 8.1 [installed on 120GB SanDisk]


New System
CPU: intel i5 4670K
RAM: Corsair 8GB 1600MHz
GPU: MSI GTX 760 2GB OC in 2 way SLI
PSU: Corsair CX750W 80+ Bronze
SSD: San Disk 120GB + Moshkin 480GB
HDD: 1TB
MoBo: MSI Z87M
OS: Windows 8.1

Basically stripping everything from old system to this new build, except for GPU, PSU and MoBo. My question is:
1. Do I have the correct PSU for the system?
2. Is that enough wattage for overclocking GPU(in SLI) n CPU?
3. Do I have to install windows 8 again for the new MoBo or just plug in n go(Its the same brand and chipset what could go wrong?)

Thanks,
HiggsPrime

1,2- Yeah the PSU looks good but i would go for something like a seasonic 80+ GOLD try this tool to figure out how much power you need to overclock and overall http://www.coolermaster.outervision.com/.
Not sure bout 3 but i think you dont if you have a hard drive that has it installed on so just plug that in.
