gonna put a rx 470  sapphire oc  (blower fan one 4gb)in it and use it for 1080p ) for my little brother

A 470 will never draw that much power. A Corsair CX450M would do fine for you if you're on a budget. Otherwise, an EVGA B2 or GQ would do nicely for you.

My account is almost entirely dormant. Hope you all are having a grand time. Many years of fun were had here.

Don't overclock the CPU. the GPU will be the major bottleneck
