He has the budget to go for more powerful hardware, hence those cards.
Ryzen is slaying Intels Kaby Lake atm, and it offers greater potential performance than KL for a lower price.

Pretty happy with the build now. Only two issues is the case I like is on sale for today only so I'll probably jump on the deal now and buy the parts later.

But the second issue is Crono has me second guessing my CPU. Ugh...

He can probably skate by with that PSU.

If you include everything...processor, ram sticks, hard drives, wireless card, mouse, keyboard and if he decides to max out his air flow with 7 complete fans...His Load wattage would be 340 W.

couple points: go 1600 not 1600x on my part list (anyone can edit it i think)

i cant open your build's link. id prob play it safe and get some 550w gold psu. it'll last longer and you dont have to worry as much.

this is the oldest point of confusion in the book. you dont skimp out on the psu because if it ****s your other components can also get ****ed

a bronze 450w psu trying to push "340 W" is basically pushing the thing to work. a platinum 550w would probably still have its fan off because its cruise control ezpz for it to power your system. i would also take those measurements with a grain of salt.  

I removed the build because it ended up being a carbon copy of yours  

so whats ur final build look like, i want fp4 to fist me it b4 u pull the trigger

Thanks a bunch for the build btw.

I hear ya. My first computer I bought a really ****ty PSU and it shorted out my MB. Forgive my ignorance but are you saying a platinum 700w psu would run better than a bronze psu? I thought the only difference between the levels were just energy efficiency and your electric bill?
