Personally, I'd swap the PSU. Here's why. The CX series isn't meant for high loads for extended periods of time. It has a heat tolerance of 30C(Which isn't that much) before it shuts off. Even though the CPU isn't that thirsty, the GPU is, and it might have trouble. Go with something from Antec/Seasonic/EVGA. Hope this helped!

Cheers @AverageHardware

[Presmo]

Sorry didn't mean to

Ditch the PSU, Get a Seasonic, Evga g2 or Super Flower one

[T_y]

@TheRandomness thanks, but i would preferre a modular or semi modular due to its a micro atx build and it would be better for space and cable management

[NinjaJc01]

Ditch the PSU, Get a Seasonic, Evga g2 or Super Flower one

Or XFX, cheap but made by Seasonic, so very high quality.

EDIT: And they mostly are atl east semi-modular, don't think there are too many on the UK pcpp site though, check on CCL and Ebuyer

[SPAS-ID]

why do even people always choosing CX Series ?, dont get that PSU, coz its a rebrand of Channel Well Technology (some Chinese/Taiwanese brand) with 1 Japan Capasitor while the rest is Chinese/Taiwan Caps, get EVGA G2/GS or XFX Pro Gold/XXX

No, G2/GS would be better and anything by XFX, Seasonic or Superflower are great too. http://uk.pcpartpicker.com/p/98Rnzy A little overbudget.

Chances are you'll never use over 500W unless you crossfire/sli.
