use that speccy link to show your computer
and take off side of ur case and tell me what power supply brand and wattage.

Though this is a really great budget PSU at its price range atm, made by fsp which are better than hec/cw etc.

Looks like a good build to me.
Fast booting, fast loading and able to play LOL max settings 144+ fps.
1tb hdd should be enough for 100,000 songs. If it's mp3 @ 320kbps.

And even very low power usage. Because its so damn efficent
