I'm not sure if this is the right place to post about this. In case it isn't, my apologies, please do remove the thread.
Well, getting down to matters, I have a build in mind and the wallet ready to do so... in a month or so
Here,
mobo: ASRock Z77 Pro4 Motherboard
cpu: Intel Core i5 3550
case: Corsair 400R Mid Tower Cabinet
ram: Corsair Vengeance DDR3 4 GB x2
hdd: WD Caviar Green 1 TB
psu: Corsair CMPSU-650TXV2UK 650 Watts PSU
gpu: Asus gtx660ti
cooler: Cooler Master Hyper 212 EVO
I really wanted some advice on the matter of the PSU. I went through the ThermalTake's PSU calculaor (Thermaltake Power Supply Calculator) and after checking out quite some reviews, I picked out the corsair enthusiast 650W. Will that work right for this config?
And about the case... will the cpu cooler fit right in it?
I don't plan to overclock either cpu/gpu. So, should I pick a H77 over a Z77? Is there any distinct advantage of the Z77 for a non-overclocker? (The cost difference isn't staggering either)
Finally, my most concerning question - What UPS would be right? considering the PSU is a 650W, shouldn't I have to pick a 650W+ UPS... Would this - APC Back UPS 1500 work? Or do I really need something more? I have never dealt with UPS' before... my ignorance is vast.
Please, Advise.
