My brother did a wish list for his birthday yesterday, other family members have theirs, so thought I'd join in ha, but for Christmas..

Anyways I've put 3 items on the list for my computer as its still not 3 weeks old yet, so not going to upgrade just yet..

Ssd sandisk 240gb
8gb corsair xms3 1600mhz
Supernova 550w gs

Now I'm not going to expect these, just something I'm putting on a list amongst general things, but my own plan was to always get the ram and a new psu after a few months, but the general idea is the same, something around 500 + and full modular for tidiness..


However I was reading these supernova are pretty large and finding it hard on Google to find info regarding fitment in Coolermaster K350, so thought I would ask as I don't want to set my sights then find it being a waste, mean this psu is currently best one I was seeing on a list for under £60, so nothing is set in stone.
 
thanks for reply.

nah i didnt think i would have much to worry about with this case, just the last computer was an old 775 gaming setup and the antec case of whatever was huge and had a hx1000 psu with still fair amount of space left, granted the evga isnt a 1000w so wont be as large :D..

could i do better for psu given the duration to potential upgrade time? i dont plan to change the 750 for a good while, but cant seem to find modulars under 500w..
 
Asus H81M-PLUS
Intel i3 4160 dual core 3.6ghz
8gb corsair xms3 ddr3 1600mhz
Gtx 750 1gb(maybe overclocked it, new afterburner is awful to understand lol)
1tb hard drive
Corsair vs350


I don't know what the years will bring or how long my system will last in the sense of if it develops faults, but somewhere down that line I would be looking at an i5 or i7 unless I completely change the mobo, something I will be able to overclock should I want/need to.
 
Ha yeah I know it's not best, that's why I want to upgrade it once the computer few months old, unless it fails in the mean time, but no issues so far..

The antec vp350 is nice, I have that in my old computer rig, but it's not modular otherwise I would swap them over, the guys who built my computer done well with the cable tidy, but I'm useless ha that's why I want modular, don't care on power so long it runs the system.
