That's like, the lowest-end PSU that you can get from a branded mfg. Advise to get something better-quality, and more wattage, at least 550W, and preferably 80Plus Gold rated or higher, while a sticking to brand names.

Don't get less than 2x8GB memory, you'll regret it. Preferably 3200-3600MHz.

This is a built-to-order PC right? It would be helpful if you provided a link to where you're buying from so we know which options are available, and tell us what your budget is.

Yeah I realise I should have been a little more descriptive, there is only 8gb of ram in there as I have 8gb already so this will be utilizing 16gb. Budget is under £2k but preferable as cost effective as possible. It is on a build site but I'm planning on looking for parts elsewhere to see where I can get the cheaper bits. So if there are parts you would recommend using in place of, as I know AMD's newer stuff is fantastic, it doesn't matter if they're on the build site or not as I will be looking to pick up parts separately too
