everything looks solid, but I am doubtful about that power supply. Seasonic isn't one of my go to brands for power supplies, but I am only one man with only one opinion.

[Peter Vaughan Truslow]

Nice, but i'd go with cheaper 1600 or 1866 RAM because it makes little difference anyways.

the thing is currently the difference in price isn't significant, and there are some applications where it will be useful. he might save $15 going with different memory.

Keep the 1866 RAM and get rid of the Maximus VII! Get a decent ASUS or MSI motherboard instead, it'll be cheaper too.

Well the Maximus VII is  an Asus motherboard  if you have any suggestions on a cheaper one .

Any suggestions on a good ASUS mobo ?

Any one of the Z87 or Z97 mobos are good.

[Antivenom]

So Maximus VII Hero is not worth ?

The Z97 Maximus VII Ranger is a good board.

If it fits in your budget, and you like it then go for it. After all you are the one using the pc everyday   

 

You could get something for around $140 such as the Gigabyte Gaming 5 or MSI Gaming 5 if you wanted to save a few dollars. The Hero is not a bad choice though.

Only one man, only one opinion. I don't know much about seasonic's quality and support.

Seasonic make some of the best power supplies you can buy. They also make/made power supplies for a lot of other companies such as XFX, Antec and Corsair.

I was first going to go with XFX 550w but wanted something more than 550 and i saw they were made by seasonic  and so i thought they were  pretty  much the same quality and so i went with seasonic

This is also a good power supply. It is made by Superflower who are an excellent manufacturer as well (They make the EVGA Supernova G2/P2 psu's)

 

You get a 5 year warranty with this unit and it is semi modular.

If not then the Seasonic Bronze psu in your opening post will be fine.

Will consider it  but most likely i will stick with the one i chose 20$ cheaper which is not alot if i was buying only a PSU but combined with the other parts its enough .
