The build seems fine, I guess. My only problem about it is the PSU. I've never heard of Akasa up until now. Just to be safe, I'd grab a Corsair, Antec, or Seasonic PSU instead.

Ok, I've got an Akasa 500W for my home PC which has been going fine for last 5+ years (about time for an upgrade )

However, this is the companies money so meh - I'll have a look for an Antec one instead. 😀

Do you really need that much RAM? I use SW nearny daily on 8GB and previously on 4GB.

I'm viewing the RAM more as a looking to the future purchase and not having to worry. I do a reasonable amount of flow analysis and also photorendering on SW which seems to eat through my current RAM quota (8GB) quite readily
