The Corsair Vengeance 550W. You will not need 700W for this build. Also, do yourself a favour and switch the processor to the R5 1600.

Be nice to each other boys and girls. And don't cheap out on a power supply.

how about the https://skinflint.co.uk/sharkoon-wpm700-bronze-700w-atx-2-3-a1105953.html?

is it any good? (the 700w are for future upgradability)

700W is overkill even for a GTX 1080 Ti. No, that PSU is not very good and as others have said you should get an R5 1600 and not a Core i5. There's no reason to buy an Intel Core i5 anymore with Ryzen 5 existing.

 

Get the aforementioned Corsair Vengeance 550W. Plenty of power for a 1080 Ti if you ever plan to get one.

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