    For starters, that 3rd stick of RAM is a waste. That MOBO is dual channel which means you should be utilizing it, else the performance will suffer.

    Call me noob, but how can I utilize the dual channel on my MOBO. As for the 3rd stick I got rid of it as soon after I posted because I seen how useless it was.

    Dual/Triple/Quad channel basically means just that. The RAM channels are optimized to utilize 2, 3, or 4 identical sticks of RAM. In your case, 2

    You'll need a ~600-650W PSU, and at least 2x PCI-E 6+2 connectors, which that PSU you lsited has. I'd however, recommend going w/ a modular to help with cleanup of wires. Up to you.

    I think I will stick with semi or full modular just because of the increase in airflow when I hide the wires behind panels.

    650W should be beneficial. Be sure not to go cheap and make sure the power supply is well reviewed.
