ok, so this is my first full pc build and ive probably got something wrong already. i just need some help making sure that everything is compatible and that i haven't missed anything. im mainly concerned about the power supply and if it has the right connectors. also i was wondering if the graphics card and motherboard are crossfire compatible, and i will probably choose a different motherboard anyway but that seemed like a good choice at the time. and if you have any suggestions on improvement then please tell me, i have worked with many computers before but this is my first gaming pc from scratch.

You still need a case, and that power supply is not going to work. Get something like a Corsair RM550i or EVGA G2.

what will you use it for, you have so much high end at everything but when comes to the GPU you picked a mid end... seems odd not to go 1070 or 1080

 

 get a 550w to 650w Psu

use pcpartpicker also why do you need so much hdd space? 

pc part picker can be useful but the accuracy of its compatibility setting is questionable, thats why i asked on here and i use allot of hard drive space with movies and modding, on my old pc i used about 2T of 3T and i plan to be using this one for a long time so i figured i should get 4T

pc partpicker is really good, nothing is questionable unless you get cheap Chinese psu.  i suggest you use that also get an ssd and build a nas if you need that much storage.

thanks, the power supply is the one thing i have no idea about and i didnt include the case i the list because i didnt think it was that important but if your interested im leaning towards the  Be Quiet! Dark Base Pro 900 Orange

yea, when i say ive worked with computers theyre mostly commercial because i worked in a computer repair shop so when it comes to high end ect i dont really know, i intend to use it for gaming so if you have any suggestions on a better graphics card that would be great

Why have an i7 7700k but have a motherboard that isn't capable of overclocking? Either get a Z270 board or drop to a 7700 non K CPU.

Also do you need super high frequency RAM and 32 GB? It seems pretty overkill for gaming.
