no SSD?

 

you wont need the 750 Watts unless you are going SLi later

 

but the CX is just an OK PSU

 

Evga PSU will be better and more reliable

If you like to do lots of multitasking then I can recommend 16gb of ram you can downgrade on that psu to a 650watt psu. Now a days for a pc you really need an ssd.

Yep everything there will work well together, the only things i'd look at changing would be the case since that's more of a personal preference thing, apart from that it's a solid system

Just looked over all the prices and websites for shipping to aus etc and it seems good. Thanks for the help!
