I have a question for people who know a lot about hardware.

600/650W PSU should be enough for you if you're not OC/SLI'ing and if you plan on gaming/watching series i'd strongly reccomend getting a 1TB HDD since they aren't that much different in prices (atleast where i live)

You must be kidding, or really clueless about hardware.

That would be a monster build, and I'd stick with 700 watt psu even if I won't overclock.

This is like a super monster build. You must have a lot of for this type of hardware. You will need a good and big case for your hardware.

I would go for a 1TB HDD. I have a 500GB one in my computer and it's nearly full with all my steam games and stuff.

Ok fine - the rest of the rig looks pretty nice! Depending on what you are going to do with you machine and the price you may wanna go for 16GB of RAM but if you are only into gaming then there is no need for more than 8GB.

Hmmm, I will add more RAM to my PC in future. :) I can put max 32GB RAM.

The external HDDs are generally cheaper than the internal ones. Find a cheap 1TB external HDD and crack it open and use the HDD inside.

Change the i7 with an i5 and buy an SSD

Exchange the i7 with a good i5, the power difference is negligible but a good i5 costs quite a bit less than an i7

^ This. You'll almost never need an i7, unless you're doing some crazy shit. You might even be able to move down to an i3 and not get too much of a performance hit.

Seconded. The i7 comes with all kinds of fancy bells and whistles that won't help you a bit if all you're after is game performance. (If you're planning on doing lots of video encoding, stick with the i7 however). Most i5 models can also be easily overclocked if you need the extra juice. And don't forget to get a decent cooler for your CPU.

The setup you posted looks really good!
The only thing is can really advise you: like meltdown said, buy a 1TB hdd or larger for your DATA.
and buy an SSD (i've got an OCZ Vertex 4 256gig myself and its great!) for your operating system, and most used programs.
I really can advise you either the OCZ Vertex 4 or the Crucial M4. The price depends on the size.
I payed 200 euros for my 256 GB OCZ Vertex 4 and a 256 GB Crucial M4 costs 180 euros (that are Dutch prices from a wellknown hardware seller)

tl:dr?
buy a higher capacity harddrive (1TB or up) for your data
buy a SSD (my advice, go for a OCZ Vertex 4 or a Crucial M4) for your operating system (i guess windows 7?) and most used programs.

The I would strongly recommend getting the i5 3570K which can be clocked close to the i7 3770K, use money saved there and get a Samsung 128gb SATA III SSD as a boot drive. You'll thank yourself for getting a SSD.

Also I noticed you don't have any CPU cooler. If you are planning to OC the CPU then don't use the stock cooler. I recommend the Noctua nh-d14. Big, but good. If you aren't planning to OC the CPU then don't go for the K series CPUs and you will save more money there.

Nice GPU. I have the Windforce too. Its great. The cooling works great. I plan to get a second one next year and SLi them. :-)

In my opinion, if it's only for gaming, you won't need an i7. I'd stick with a good i5.
