This is my first home built system and I just want to make sure I've calculated this correctly.
The PSU I have my eye on is the OCZ GameXStream 600w. It has 4 +12v rails at 18A and is rated for 80%+ efficiency so it seems to be just what I'm looking for and at a decent price. My build will include E6300 /w Scythe Ninja, 8800GTS 320MB, 2GB G Skill DDR2 800, 1 320GB Seagate HD, dedicated sound card, and I will be doing a mild OC. I will likely add one, maybe two HDs, in the near future and may upgrade to a GTX further down the road.
First question, is this a solid PSU and will it handle what I currently have?
Second, will this cover me if I do the proposed upgrades? Or should I jump up to the 700w OCZ since it's only 5 bucks more on newegg?
TIA for any and all replies.
