Hi I was just wondering what power supply I should go with. I will be running an AMD Phenom II 960t and a radeon 6870. I plan to overclock this system as well.

Antec 550w: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16817371016

OR

OCZ 600w: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16817341017

Is it worth gettig the extra 50w with the OCZ? Should I have more than 600w? If there is anything better for around $80 or less and preferably modular then please let me know. Thanks!

I am a big fan of Antec, but either one of these is good depending on what you else you have in the box. If you plan to scale up the card later or add more drives your going to want more power, bigger is better here. Check the reviews on both PSU's to make sure theres not an issue. Good luck.
