Hey all,
I am building a new system and I have ordered all the components. I currently have an X-navigator case and a power supply. I want to know whether you guys think that this power supply will suffice or whether I should upgrade to another one.
Let me list the new system specs for you:
Case: APEVIA X-Navigator ATXA8NW
Motherboard: GIGABYTE GA-EP35-DS3L LGA 775 Intel P35 ATX Intel Motherboard
CPU: Intel Core 2 Quad Q6600 Kentsfield 2.4GHz 2 x 4MB L2 Cache LGA 775 Quad-Core Processor
Video Card: EVGA 512-P3-N841-AR GeForce 8800GTS (G92) 512MB 256-bit GDDR3 PCI Express 2.0 x16
RAM: OCZ Reaper HPC Edition 4GB (2 x 2GB) 240-Pin DDR2 SDRAM DDR2 800 (PC2 6400) Dual Channel Kit
Hard Drive: Seagate Barracuda 7200.11 ST3500320AS 500GB 7200 RPM 32MB Cache SATA 3.0Gb/s Hard Drive
CD-ROM: I have a DVD-RW and a DVD-ROM but I doubt these will affect the PSU as much as other components.
THIS IS MY CURRENT PSU:
PSU: Thermaltake Purepower W0100RU 500W ATX 12V 2.0 Power Supply 115/ 230 V UL, CUL, TUV, FCC, and CB certification

I am wondering if that PSU will be alright for this system. I am not CURRENTLY going to overclock the system BUT if I decide to do so within the next month or 2 months, would I need to get a different power supply anyway? If so, then I may as well get one NOW and install it.
Here is the PSU I was lookin at getting. However, it may be a little overkill @ 700W.
-OCZ GameXStream OCZ700GXSSLI 700W ATX12V Power Supply 100 - 240 V

Please let me know what you think. If you have any other PSU suggestions, I would love to hear them. I have looked at the PSU ranking chart/post or whatever but I want actual PEOPLE'S opinions. Thanks for taking the time to read my post!
