Hello,

I am getting a ASUS P5E Deluxe LGA 775 Intel X48, a ZOTAC GeForce GTX 280. I have a dual core 8400 and will be going with a 9550 in a close future. I have to WD 320 gig HD. I presently the 450w PSU that came with my Sonata 2 case. I dont think that it will be enough for what I am getting. Could you guys tell me what PSU I could get that would not cost to much.

I was thinking that the 750W ALIMENT ATX CORSAIR TX, but I am not sure if it's not enough, overkill or perfect.

Thanks

A Corsair 750 watt power supply should be fine and will probably be good for future upgrades.

I like the PCPower Silencer series myself, something like the silencer 750 watt unit.
But for god sakes stay away from Asus, if you have any trouble with the motherboard at all you will be sorry you bought it.
I like DFI, good solid boards and they OC well.
