Is the Rosewill Galaxy-03 case big enough to fit the Hyper 212 EVO? I wonder because PCPartPicker can't verify if it will.

Yes.

Yes it will I had a 212+ in a challenger case that is narrower.

The official Rosewill website doens't say anything about CPU coolers.

So I recommend contacting Rosewill.

You need to change that PSU. It is very low quality and you will be putting your system at risk by using it. Even a CX series would be an upgrade.

Yeah, I went on these forums and the guy said to replace my EVGA 80+ PSU with this one. I'll get another one, instead. How about this? It's only $44.99 right now.

He obviously had no idea what he was talking about. The one you linked should be fine.
Most 80+ cert units a fairly decent with some exceptions.

Funny username you have

It's a good PSU, made by Seasonic.

What exact model EVGA PSU do you have?

If you can afford it, try the EVGA 750W G2. I won this and I belive it is the best on the market IMO.

This will allow you to have plenty of space for upgrades in the future.

Thanks!

It was this one. It was only 430W because I didn't plan on overclocking but it may still be not enough.

Yeah, I think that's more than I'll need! I won't need a crazy PSU, if anything I'll need one that can hold all my components and be able to handle a FX-8320 overclock to 4.0GHz.

I would change the PSU to at least a Bronze certificate. 😉

The 4Ghz is not an overclock it is a boost. So don't worry about you needing to overclock the CPU to get 4GHz.

 

[smeezekitty]

However you can set it to 4GHz always on which could technically be considered overclocking. Boost clocks can be a little so-so

It was this one. It was only 430W because I didn't plan on overclocking but it may still be not enough.

AMD CPUs take a bit of power but chances are it would be enough since the GPU sips power

As in, I won't need to change the voltage?

Yes.

So, I should just go ahead and get the EVGA 430W, if I don't feel if i need the Antec 620W (and the fact that my build would only use 284W)?

 

[smeezekitty]

But important. If you plan to upgrade your GPU in the near future you should get the bigger supply
so you don't have to buy another PSU soon down the road. If you plan on sticking with the 750ti then you can stick with the 430w
