    It's looking good. Hope you got a good price on the Seasonic as the Corsair mentioned previously is usually a bit cheaper but is in fact made by, and of the same quality as the Seasonic (with a nice Corsair 5 year warranty too).

    When I built my first machine last year, I flicked the power switch and everything came on and I was like "Wow, it all worked, pretty cool!" I think the whole idea of building something as complicated like a computer by yourself seems daunting at first, but it's completely do-able.

    Ironically, the hardware is easy and the software is hard:D
