- Silverstone Strider Plus 750W ST75F-P

- Sapphire Radeon HD7970 3GB OC Edition with Boost

- ASRock Z77 Extreme4 Motherboard

- CoolerMaster HAF XM Case

- Intel Core i5 3570K

- G.Skill F3-10600CL9S-8GBNT 8GB (1x8GB) DDR3

2 things

1. unless you plan to crossfire in the future, i would go down to a 600W psu

2.I would go for a dual channel (2x4GB) kit instead of a single channel one
