That PSU looks good. If you're not after it for the MIR price, at the default price range, I'd step it up to the PC Power & Cooling Silencer 610. It's slightly more expensive and rated slightly lower, but it has 49A on a single +12V rail (with those triple rails, you don't add them up and get the total becuase it doesn't work that way), and better quality (though Antec's good too). That's more preference though. That PSU you selected is good, especially if the MIR proce is honored by Antec.

For the HDD, 70GB more for an extra $5.00 here.

BTW, if you're overclocking, I have to again reccomend dropping the 6400+ and going with a 5000+ or 5400+. They're both virtually the same chip except the 6400+ is clocked a bit higher. That extra speed can asily be equaled by overclocking the other two, and the 6400+ doesn't have as much overclocking headroom. It'll save you a third of the price on the CPU.


I didn't see a 610 on newegg. There's a 750 and a 360.

I've never overclocked anything before. Are there good tutorials on overclocking those specififc processors then?

And as for the vid card, it's supposed to come factory overclocked so I wonder if that includes the fan. I'll have to look at the reveiws again and see if they say anything.
