I hate to break it to you, but you're gonna need 1000w or more... ;) But otherwise build looks pretty good. I like the choice of a hybrid drive.

He does not "need" a 1000w PSU. Please do not misinform people.

Have you tried turning it off and on again?

"I've been mad for fucking years, absolutely years, I've been over the edge for yonks..."

"I've always been mad, I know I've been mad, like the most of us are...very hard to explain why you're mad, even if you're not mad..."

Sorry :( mybad haha

but to be fair if he was a beginner (which he may or may not be), it might be unwise to make such comments just in case :P

A lot of boards "support" the fx 8 cores but that doesn't always mean it will run on them. I literally have to help people with this issue almost on a weekly basis and I just had a buddy irl buy his setup and accidentally get the Asus m5a970 that doesn't have the power phases heat synced and he burnt his board out in literally 5 days. I believe the Gigabyte 970a d3p does have the power phases heatsynced but you might want to make sure there is as much airflow over the power phases as possible.
