I have the toughpower 750W and its been 100% reliable since I got it. It is quiet and easily powerful to drive my OC'd i7 system. Its modular as well, which makes for a neat interior. I'd recommended it.

One is a modular unit and one is a hardwired unit. The choice is a matter of personal preference.

Here is a link to a technical review of the modular version:

quoted conclusion.......

If you are in the market for a power supply in the 600~750 watt range, one of the new Thermaltake Toughpower units deserve a close look. The 750W model exhibited very good voltage regulation and stability and was quiet, especially while operating under moderate loads. The overall efficiency is very good and Active PFC, sleeved cables, and a 3-year warranty are added pluses. The Toughpower 750W is notably the best power supply I have ever tested from Themaltake.

Need suggestion in picking a Processor
By Pro Llama, 6 hours ago:

The i7 920 runs about $290 in US, so I'm guessing that you either are not in the US or need that $400 for more then just the cpu. So a PII 955 c3 is $160 on newegg.com, can get a good asus board for $110ish, and 4gb of ddr3 for $105ish. Total would be around $375. There are also boards in the $60 range that are good but dont have as many features. You can try an i5 setup, but it will push you past your $400 limit.
