Hows my build? could it be better?attachicon.gifpc.jpg

yeah you should get rid of your PSU instantly and get something better, there been so many cases where the psu exploded and set the whole house on fire, really please get it out of your system it can hurt you and destroy your house

 

edit: im just kidding. your psu is fine.

where do you find custom sleeved cables?

 

Cable Mod has nice sleeved extension kits, the CX series is not bad for general builds for the 4690K and gtx960 I would draw the line there for the CX and not go too much more with higher power or heat components.

There was a guy running 2 R9 270 crossfire on CX430M PSU , and had no problems.

 

You must be stupid in order to do that, but you have a CX750M, so you shouldn't even worry about anything, because the people are overreacting. Sure it's not the best PSU and it has CapXon capacitors, but it's fine to power up your system and you have plenty of space later.

Ignore the CX PSU comments.

 

With your setup, I'd ignore what these people are saying... It is a 750W, you are well in the green zone in my opinion. 

However if you upgrade your graphics card and do some CPU and GPU overclocking, I'd recommend getting a EVGA G2 PSU.

That would only be possible on VERY crappy power supplies (logysis etc)

The CX series of PSUs is completely fine. If it was a dangerous or sub par product for what it's marketed at, Corsair would stop selling them to prevent damaging their brand, people just got this notion that under certain circumstances they stop working, and ran with it.
