    Going for Quiet Movies/Gaming build

    Going for Quiet Movies/Gaming build

    I'm probably going to be ordering the RAM within the next few hours, so if someone could double check and make sure that at least the RAM is ok that'd be great. edit: Bought the RAM, still have a little time to cancel tho if need be.

    Thanks for such a great reply! You are really helping me better understand some of this stuff. Much appreciated. So I'll chop the PSU down to the 650 and switch out the ram.

    First build, going for a well-rounded pc

    I've always heard you shouldn't skip on the PSU? I am also planning on adding in a sound card and a couple more hard drives if that makes any difference.
