Thermaltake PSU is not a choice I can get behind, suggest XFX Core edition

1 GFX card $60 650 watt .....save $35

Thanks for the feedback... The drive was a Newegg deal. I had to look at invoice again. One time deal $54.99

What I did was take one of Neweggs Combo Deals and "added to cart" just what I wanted.
