Hi! 

 

I am planning to order these parts for my new gaming pc, and there are a few things I am kind of uncertain of... So here are the parts:

 

Graphics card: Zotac GTX 980 Ti AMP! Extreme edition 

CPU: Intel i5 6600k

Storage: 250gb Samsung Evo 850 SSD and 2000gb Western Digital Green HDD

CPU cooler: Noctua NH-D15

PSU: ?

Motherboard: Asus Z170 Pro Gaming

RAM: 8gb Crucial Ballistix Sport DDR4

Case: Phanteks Enthoo Pro

 

(pcpartpicker list: http://pcpartpicker.com/p/XBxNhM)

 

I was wondering what type of a PSU I should have for this system since I bet it's fairly power consuming. Originally I was going to go for a Lepa 1000w maxbron but after reading some reviews I started doubting its quality. The budget on the power supply is around 130 euros. Evga psus are not available where I am at the moment so those are out of the question. Mainly confused about the wattage and the manufacturer.

 

Also, if there is anything that looks off with the build or you have bad/good experience with some of the parts then I'd happily hear about it!

 

Any sort of help/feedback is appreciated, thank you.

Oh wow, I thought I'd need a lot more than 650 watts... Thanks!

So I guess I am going to go for a Seasonic G-750w PSU, I think that cleared up most of the problems I had. Thanks to everyone who helped!
