So this is attempt number 5 to place my order at newegg, their billmelater customer service was horrendous, but never mind that. I caved and decided to go with the 2600K instead of the AMD 8150, im sure ill be happier.
I still need a power supply. I had a post in /r/hardware about it and I thought I had a 600W machine, as it turns out, this psu calc says 539 minimum and 589 max, with capacitor aging, system load, and cpu utilization at max. Is the power supply listed overkill? I am open to cheaper suggestions as long as they dont compromise quality and I would prefer a Corsair.
Also, I am not all too sure about the motherboard, I could really use a good suggestion there. If you see anything else, let me know how I can improve it.
EDIT: Sorry I forgot to edit the title before I submitted it :/
