what are you using the build for- are you adding a GPU (graphics card) ? The GPU is a main component for any gaming build and can determine what PSU you need. It is an unusual built you have listed - so let us know what you planning on using it for so we can help you.

No GPU. Also, I am on quite a budget. I'm new to building PC's and this would be my first one. Where you said it is quite an unusual build, could you please explain?

Thanks!

EDIT: If I were to get a GPU, could you suggest one? It has to be pretty cheap though since I mentioned above I'm on a budget.

What's your budge, and what's the purpose of the build?

A GTX 750ti GPU would work best for your budget build.
Going with a Seasonic 520Watt would work fine
There's nothing wrong with your parts lists if you are going with a budget and not a heavy gamer. It'll work well for your every day pc usage

 

[PP Mguire]

In the lands of Mordor the Seasonic is probably going to be pretty expensive. A CX500 would work well in this case.

This isn't a PC built for high gaming but I might occasionally play some TF2, minecraft and stuff like that.

The Corsair CX500 or the Corsair CX500 v2?

 

[Joe C]

Seasonic does make some Corsair PSU's at a lower price so going with the Corsair V2, you can't go wrong

 

[PP Mguire]

CX series is CWT but still using Corsair's design. It's why they are some of the better budget units.

V2 or not, both are practically the same.
