that is a matter of preference i personally like this one more but it dose get finger smudges while the other looks like it metal all around so it probably wont either case is good though check out some you tube reviews of them that fully show off the case so you can get an idea for the one you want

If the Platinum (1000W) and Gold (1050W) were the same price; I'd have no problems recommending the platinum over the gold rated PSU. If you are paying a premium (regular retail prices) for the platinum, it simply isn't worth it unless you are going for the extra warranty period. The power savings between the two PSU's would not be worth the price difference in my opinion.

Hey Josh, I can't comment on the 1000 of each PSU. My decision is this. My choice was between the Corsair 1200i and the EVGA 1200 P2. I choose the EVGA for a couple of reasons. First off, the 10 year warranty, and almost a hundred dollar difference. Both of these are very good psu's. You can't do wrong with either. However I personally don't care for the (i) interface. To me however, 1200 watts is not an overkill. Simply because my rig is build for the long future (4k). And knowing that my psu has a 10 year warranty. No brainer. Like I said, you can't go wrong with either. However look at the warranty, future, and price. GAME ON, my friend

At the minimum I would use a 650 watt PSW. I currently have a Corsair 750TX and it is perfect for the job. It also needs to be stressed this video card requires two power inputs a 6 pin connector, and an 8 pin. Newer PSW come equipped with the proper connectors. Sorry it took me a couple of days to respond....a truly great card though you will love it.

The one that comes in the box should probably be adequate, however, I bought a water cooling system for my system. I bought the top-of-the-line Corsair H100i. Keeps my system nice and cool, and I can run heavy duty games with little impact. Highly recommended. Corsair Hydro Series Extreme Performance Liquid CPU Cooler H100i

I googled the two part numbers. Both represent the white one. I think it's on corsair's side. It also says that a newer model is there but both are the same thing no difference.

I am personally using the Corsair H100i system for mine that I am currently in the process of building, i am also geting the same processor and motherboard as you also. The Corsair system may be you best bet

If you ever want to upgrade your rig you'll want a psu to handle it the supernova is plenty if power for anything you want I would go with this just to save money latter on instead of buying another psu to upgrade

Yes, I have Corsair's Dominator which is a bit bigger than the Vengeance and it fits perfectly. Except it can kind of be a little hard to install the V8 cpu cooler.

The difference is the Sabertooth board is made with overall higher quality components and receives a certificate that ensures it was even pre-tested at the factory for durability. Having owned each I can tell you the Sabertooth is a better board but the M5A99FX is a good board as well. Any motherboard from Asus is a win so if you wanna save a few bucks grab the PRO R2.0 and if you want a board that has a 5 year warranty and will probably last 10 years with no problems and is a great overclocker get the Sabertooth. Either way you cannot go wrong and I'm sure the PRO R2.0 will last over 5 years too. I did notice that the Sabertooth tended to be a better overclocker for my 8350, seeing you are getting an 8320, the MOSFETS seem to be more durable and don't get as hot and the heatsinks on the Sabertooth are definitely better.

Its an alright choice. I have a custom water cooling set up in mine. Hold a 360 rad just fine though you lose the top 5.5 slot.

Get a larger one such as 1000 +, that will give you enough for later add-ons. Don't scrimp on the PSU at all. Over worked PSU's are not good.

It should be a good match. I used the 4x4MB version of this (CMZ16GX3M4A1600C9B) in mine and it is performing quite well. I found the 4x4 to have lower latency and I liked the match of the blue heat spreaders with the other blue sinks already on the ASUS MB. I've used Corsair RAM in several machines and have always gotten many years of solid performance out of it.

It would be more than enough. That's twice of what you actually need. I have the same hardware and i use a Corsair CX550M. Runs like a charm.

If it is a good PSU like a Corsair, Seasonic or an Antec you will likely be fine. With a cheap PSU it will likely shut down your computer periodically at best and instantaneously at worst.

I would not get the H100i. The Corsair Link software is hideous and does not work properly. It's truly awful in Windows 8.

I bought a 750W supply to be safe. Not a big price difference and it's modular
