[Matty2hatty]

I would rather a 970, your choice

Only change I would make is probably to the 650W G2 rather than the 750W. Unless you plan on running Crossfire, 750W is way too much headroom, overclocking considered.

You dont need the thermal paste, the stuff that comes with the Kraken is just as good
