Hi everyone! I'm new here, I am building a discrete PC, usually play a lot of LoL but want to play some other games, I am a more indie gamer, not a 200FPS Call of Duty/Battlefield fan, but I want to play some tier1 games so I opted for this build:

ASUS M5A97 EVO R2.0
AMD 8520
GSKILL Ripjaws 2x4Gb 1600Mhz DDR3
Sapphire R9 270X 4GB GDDR5 WITH BOOST & OC

I need to find a propper PSU and Cooling system for this PC. A friend recommended this one:
Seasonic Bronze 80plus 620 Watts M12ii-620

Because of warranty and he was asking too and got recommended for that one on his PC (Than is different than mine though).

Other than that, It is worth to go for an SSD? Too expensive and too little space for my uses I think.

Thank you very much! And sorry about my spelling, I am from Argentina :)

well in the ssd department i would recommend this SSD its cheap and very fast great for your os and slow loading games
in the psu department i would recommend this one PSU enough and you can overclock a tad while your at it

Hey, thanks for the answer. I can buy that PSU and SSD outside Argentina if someone brings it to me though, the EVGA power sources are not available here.

What difference can you find between the EVGA and the Seasonic that my friend recommended? How is that I can overclock since the PSU is 600W and I believe I am needing just about that.

Thank you.

honestly seasonic is a fine brand if you want to go anything else get corsair, fractal design, nzxt, coolermaster, antec, rosewill, and thermaltake. the thing with evga is they just make the best bang for the buck psus out there
 
trust me when i say 600watts is plenty hell you could even expand a good bit it's 80+ bronze so you could use 85% of that 600watts safely so you can use 510 watts you could upgrade to a 980 and a i7 5960x (non OC) go 750watts if you plan on going for a 290x but you'll take my advice or you want
