6 out of 10 the psu is a little overkill even if you get a second 560 ti and you need a cpu cooler for that 2500k.

I thought it was overkill to but I just wanted to be sure and I plan on getting a second 560 ti asap. I also know that i need a good cooler for the 2500k but didn't have an extra 25 or whatever to get the cooler master hyper 212+ right now. So clock speeds for now

what is your budget, location, overclocking?, SLI/crossfire?, and what do you not need

i can probably build better

Hello, Good build but here is what i could find
Your Pc will use around 400W but it will be only 42% of your PSU, so less efficiency. 950W was an overkill. GTX 660 will be released soon, so 560 will be outdated. No SSD, no CPU cooler. A Z68 motherboard if you are not overclocking? B75 was cheaper

Well I don't know how much a 660 will be and I can always upgrade to it later. I don't really care about ssd's all they do is faster loading times and transfer rates if I'm not mistaken. I will be getting a cpu cooler so I can over clock when i get more money. But yes I know 950w is overkill but I figured if I get a 950w then i will have enough power for whatever I ever upgrade to

lowest i can go without sacrificing quality and overclockability. in your build, it probably wont overclock very far since you need a aftermarket heatsink which will cost you another 30 bucks.

with 700 dollars, i usually recommend builds without overclocking
