the 600W combo is good. Corsair CX are good 80+ units.

wi-fi adapters are close to commoditized, anything from a decent brand will work (DLink, Netgear are top brands, but Zonet, Zyxel, Belkin, and even rosewill make decent models as well.

I didnt see a hard drive listed in your parts, have you got one in mind? I like the samsung f3 spinpoint @7200 rpm and 32mb cache it is purty qwik :D  , Also consider a small ssd drive to load windows on for faster boots and quicker program launching. In either or both cases go with the newer sata III 6gb,assuming your choice of mobo supports SataIII.
