Advice please!

Hey guys, It's been almost 8 years since I've rebuilt a PC so I am some what out of date, the budget is around £1050, here is what I've come up with using the config system and asking the nice people to build it for me!

YOUR BASKET
1x NZXT Phantom 410 Enthusiast Midi Tower Case
1x Intel Core i7-4770K 3.50GHz (Haswell) Socket LGA1150 Processor
1x Cooler Master Hyper TX3 Evo CPU Cooler
1x Gigabyte Z87-HD3 Intel Z87 (Socket 1150) DDR3 ATX Motherboard
1x Kingston HyperX Black 16GB (2x8GB) DDR3 PC3-12800C10 1600MHz Dual Channel Memory Kit
1x KFA2 Geforce GTX 770 EX OC 2048MB GDDR5 PCI-Express Graphics Card
1x Seagate Barracuda 7200RPM 1TB SATA 6Gb/s 64MB Cache - OEM (
1x XFX Pro 850W Core Edition '80 Plus Bronze' Power Supply
1x BitFenix Spectre PRO PWM 120mm Fan - White

My main concern was that I don't plan on overclocking my cpu just yet, but having the option to do so in the future and wondering if I need such a high psu wattage or can I get away with something less? I know I can only probably overclock to about 4.2 with my current cooling in this set-up, but that's all I would need if I did, only future upgrades may be a new gpu in a year or two, any advice would be welcomed, thanks!

I'd say you'd only need a PSU of that power if you're planning to add a second card down the line for SLI.

If you're not bothered about that, you'd be fine with a quality 600-650w unit.

Personally, I'd overspend a little on the PSU since you can use it for future builds/upgrades.

500W would do the job, you're not pushing too hard on the CPU or GPU. I'd maybe get a 650W just for a little headroom and piece of mind if you go for a heavy overclock, but that's optional.
