Hey guys, so im building a gaming pc now for a ~1000 USD (I'm from Europe so its 900 euros) I've managed to create a build myself but would like to hear some advice from you guys.

CPU - INTEL® CORE I5-4460 3.2GHZ
GPU - MSI GeForce GTX970 4GB GDDR5 GAMING4G
MB - Asus H81-Gamer
RAM - Kingston 8GB DDR3 HyperX Fury Red
POWER - Corsair CX600 ATX2.3 80+ 600W
CASE - COOLER MASTER MIDL TOWER ELITE K(NIGHT) 350
HDD - Western Digital CAVIAR Blue 1TB
SSD - A-Data SSD Premier Pro SP900 128GB

What do you think about it? I'd like to ask if there are anything you would change. Also need suggestions about PSU, Case and MoBo. Dont really know which ones to get. For PSU is 550W enough or i should even go lower than that ? If you have any suggestions could you use 1a.lt site to find a better product perhaps? because im ordering from there. Thanks you guys!
 
Corsair makes low quality PSUs. You were mostly on point, here's a bit better though.
