Looks like a great build, but I would grab a Xigmatek Dark Knight over that Arctic Cooling HS/F.

Your PSU is a bit overkill for what you need, but I'm guessing you're future-proofing with it?

 

[AKM880]

You wouldn't need such a big PSU unless you were planning to do major upgrades in the future. To get the most out of your computer, you can probably overclock that E5200 to somewhere in the 3GHz's.

thanks for the quick replies,

how many watts would be enough for this? 550? 650? also what companies would you recommend for the Power supply? This is one part where I do not want to cheap out on

also Im new to overclocking to it may take me some time to understand and get the e5200 overclocked

will the Xigmatek Dark Knight fit in the case without problems?

again thanks and look forward to your replies

a quality 500w will do, but i suggest you keep that 750w because it will last you a LONG time.

and yes, your case isn't THAT small.. i built a system for my friend using that case and it aint much smaller than the antec 900 lol

 

[Helltech]

Stick with Corsair, just get the 650w version. Corsair has amazing PSU's. The 750w version is only $110 on newegg, don't know where you were searching, btw. Being as that its not that expensive you might want to stick with it. It will last you a while.

^ The OP is using NCIX.com since it is Canadian.

 

[Helltech]

Doh! Skipped that line it seems. Well then yea, my advice still holds truth IMO. I'd go with the 650TX if you're looking to save about 20 dollars.

 

[marco324]

ide stick with the 750 watt has a 5 year warranty for $100+ i wouldn't get anything less always good have extra power less strain 80+ certified

 

[steepers]

he only need 550w to power that system but anyway the build looks good and i too would go with the xigametek and overclock to 3.4+
