Where are you going to study it? JW was something I was looking into myself

 

Silverstone do some SFX PSUs themselves 

 

Anyway here is what I came up with, 2 of crucials new 512gb SSDs, put them in raid 0 for super speed and lots of storage, also fit in a 780ti for even better GPU performance, kept the same CPU and board as they are really good, and the vengance pro ram is awesome too, I have some

 

Your thoughts? the single rad corsair coolers are not the best, if you can get a case to fit the h100i in or something that would be great, but you can always change the cooler to sometihng that fits better/water or whatever you like

would the 500w psu be enought for all of that?

Yeah should nicely fit within 500, you can always find a different case and use your own PSU, but I just like this, its one of the smallest cases you can fit a 780ti inside

Nope :( nowhere to put it, actually from reading around you would have to get  a low profile air cooler but it is TINY and very gorgeous looking haha
