Thanks.
The 750W is only 20$ more, so I might get it, just in case in the future I'll want to Xfire. By the way, what do you guys think is better, the HAF 922 or the Lancool I picked, and why?

 
^ Well the mobo doesnt support SLI/ proper x8x8 Crossfire...That is the reason why I suggested to go with a lower powered PSU...
And as for the case, if you like Blue lights, then the Lian Li, if Red, then HAF 922...Both are very good options IMO...
 
Once u higher end Fermi reviewers al around will ring the alarm bell and not state the GTX 470/480 a better buy than HD 5850/5870 So @ $820AR
