im such a newbie at making systems... thats why i nid your expert help guys.... il be w8n for your replies....
550-600 watts should probably be enough. Just look for the one with the best reviews and see what the bads ones say. I'd go for a nVidia chipset seeing as your using a nVidia vide/graphics card, my opinion though. ECS, MSI, and ASUS are supposed to be good. I use a MSI myself and it works well and a friend uses a ECS and it works well, so its still a good choice. It all looks pretty good. Make sure you get good quality RAM and not cheap junk if you want good performance. Corsair has good RAM, Kingston and OCZ are good too.
