hey guys

I need some opinions regarding the OCZ StealthXStream 600W psu. A friend's flying in from Canada, so I'm gonna ask him to get it for me. I'm in Lebanon, Beirut btw so buying online/shipping internationally is too much of a hassle and too expensive.

here's my current setup:

Intel C2D E6750
Intel DP35DP
Gecube Radeon 3870 X-turbo3 512mb gddr4
2GB DDR2 @ 800mhz
2x sata2 hdds
2x dvd writers

one thing though... I might be changing my vga in the future. I saw a Point Of View Geforce GTS 250 512MB for $149 usd at a store here (yeah prices are more expensive). So anyway, I'm expecting that psu to last for a couple of years.

I'd appreciate other psu suggestions; oh and I don't wanna pay more than $100 usd, heh. So anything in the lines of $80 to $90 would be fantastic.

thanks :)

I personally think 600W is enough for your setup, and even if you upgrade to that GTS 250. I'm not sure though how reliable that particular PSU model is. It's fanless right? My friend's experience with them was never exactly superb.
