Nah, you can always upgrade that later... or if you want to save some money now and do it now ( I would buy it now and save cash, but I'm a cheapskate haha)

It saves you the money of buying the Corsair 550vx and another PSU later on

my power supply

Newegg.com - CORSAIR CMPSU-750TX 750W ATX12V / EPS12V Power Supply 100 - 240 V UL, CE, CB, TUV, FCC, CCC - Power Supplies

So how does my setup look to everyone?

EDIT: Should i get the oem q6600 or a new one? are oems used? i could save a few bucks if i got the oem but are the retail better?

OEM's just mean you get the CPU wrapped on some material,

with Retail you get the Box and Instructions and the lame stock cooler

Idk why anybody needs instructions with a CPU... its really not hard, look for the corner on the CPU and match it with the one on the board, and put in the same direction
