Credit to @Starelementpokeand @Energycore for helping out with this long-awaited refresh of the old PSU tier list by Aniallation (who previously went several months without logging in), leaving the old list in need of help. This is simply an update of the list that was flawed in creation by the PCMR subreddit and in dire need of a refresh.
 
This list is subject to change as new PSUs come out on a regular basis and standards may change or issues with units on the list may develop. A list of PSUs awaiting a tier on this list is at the bottom.

Here's a review http://www.tomshardware.com/reviews/bitfenix-whisper-series-550w-psu,4805.html - very good choice, Mr. Costanza.

It's more like gun-metal grey

Nope. A lot of people actually get a bigger power supply in order to add a second graphics card later. And you don't want to get like the bare minimum since if something goes wrong or you get a shortage then your pc will just turn off.

1080ti on 1080p...lolwut

AMD, world leader in using competitor's gpus, cause their own sux!

 

Buy used parts for memory, SSDS/HDD and PSU. Thats really the only way to save some money if you want to keep everything low, otherwise look for deals.

The Strix is the best B350. Same price why not get it?

Look at what he's been saying about AMD Vega.
 
He's obviously not an AMD fanboy.

Ah okay, hang on.

It's called following the money! 

It's almost like Ryzen is a new innovative product and the i9 and Extreme edition processors are just the same old same old.
 
Also, click baiting, again? He's been doing it for the past year+ now.

It's cyclical.. 
 
Some company releases a good/exciting/interesting product, and I say it's good/exciting/interesting, then I get labeled a fanboy of aforementioned company.
 
That company's competitor does the same, and I do the same thing.. then I'm "switching sides".
 
How about this? I'M NOT A FAN OF ANYTHING SO THERE IS NO SIDE-SWITCHING FOR ME TO DO!
 
I'm not on "a side" and anyone who thinks I am needs to take a LONG, HARD look in the mirror and figure out why they see the world in terms of "which side someone is on".. because if you think of things that way you're probably a fanboy. And that's sad.

we can't allow it because it's not RGB

It has 3 fans
Looks better IMO but it has 3 fans so it'll be quieter and more effiecnt

I don't understand why you're getting mad at me? I was complementing the boost clock speeds on the GPU. But I did some research and found out ASUS has shitty QC, poor customer support, and some others not really worth stating.

Hence why I'll just get EVGA lmao.

Nothing wrong with the 1070 other than its very overpriced right now due to RX being bought by miners and everyone getting 1070 instead. The price has skyrocketed over the last month and I don't think a GPU is worth it at the current going price. If it was closer to its MSRP then I would recommend it instead for the OPs budget. 
 
As for B250, unfortunately the only CPU remotely worthwhile from Intel for the mainstream is 7700k and that's if you are purely gaming and need every last fps. (competitive eSports). Ryzen 3 and 5 are overall better chips for their price category and R7 is better price for performance in my opinion. I have a 6700k since that was the best price to performance when I made my build, if I was building now, I would get R1700 without a second thought.

Dells' Inpsiron gaming lines, the 7559, the 7567, and even the new 5000 series kinda make this point moot, as all of them have very good battery life.
I've used my 7559 as my daily driver for college.  Not once by the end of the school day was I rushing for a charger.

Is the motherboard lined up with the correct sockets in the I/O Shield?

They shouldn't hit, the capacitors should be lower than the height of the pcie slot, and I'm pretty sure the ATX standards have non-interference areas to avoid things like that happening.
 
Most likely you aren't getting the tabs on the card into their slots on the rear panel.  Check to see if one of them is bent at all.
 
If nothing is bent and you're pretty sure you're hitting those caps, you can confirm this by putting a drop of whiteout on the top of the caps, then attempting to install the card.  If you get whiteout on the card, it is in fact hitting.
