I'm making a gaming PC and would like some advice on the parts I've selected below on PCpartpicker.

http://uk.pcpartpicker.com/p/TZ3CnQ

I have checked through the compatibility feature on their website to make sure and they all seem fine but would like to double check on here. I would also like to know if there are any parts I should replace that are better?
Would not like to go over the current total price (£962) of the parts by too far, though depends on the extra performance I'd get.


The part I'm most skeptical about is the PSU, because I'm not very knowledgeable on those.

Thanks for reading :)

SO everything looks pretty good, just a couple of things, unless you really need it, 16gb of ram can be overkill for gaming. So if you want to save like £50 get 8gb instead. The processor is great! Although if your not looking to overclock you could save just a little. Graphics card is great an you will get amazing performance out of it. Mother board is great for future expandability. For the 500gb SSD unless you really need it you could just get 250gb and save some money. The power supply might be over kill but great for expandability.

So overall GREAT pc build, It will last you a while with that GTX 970 4GB card. Although make sure not to spend all your money on your pc and save some for STEAM SUMMER SALE! So for things like ram...
