Here is what i am thinking:

I posted about my PSU. I think I may need to get a new one...

Anyhow, here is what i have...


Asus A8N32-SLI Deluxe
AMD Athlon 64 X2 4800+
*2 x BFG NVidia GeForce 7800 GTX OC PCIe 256mb in SLI (1 at first)
2 x 1GB Corsair XMS (TWINX1024-3200C2PRO)
*Creative Sound Blaster X-Fi Platinum
2 x Optical drives
Up to 4 x HDD
Water Cooled (what kind, no clue, any ideas would be greatly appreciated)

Looking for something that will keep me going for a while. Not rich enough to upgrade all of the time, but have enough money saved up now for this.

Thanks

Enermax Noisetaker 660w should be good for quite a while + topped Tom's list of cleanest power in PSU's

Nice specs.If you just happen to have those 4 hdds build Raid 1 over two Radi0 arrays. Fast and secure. Dreaming of such a thing.

Thanks for the input...I guess I am going to have to fork out some moola for a PSU

I don't know very much, so you might want to disregard this.

That sounds like a very nice setup, but you might want to consider the x1900xt for $20 cheaper than the BFG 7800gtx (at least on newegg).

Just my $.02

Thanks for the input....I have had both ATI and NVidia cards in the past and all in all I prefer NVidia. Plus I plan on running SLI in this machine down the road.

Thanks
