Looks fine. I'm sure you'll be happy with it. The only reason to get a higher wattage power supply is if you are planing on adding more hardware later, such as SLI video cards. But you can always swap out your power supply in the future if you need to.

I've been building my own computers for a long time and I think it's really worth it. You save a ton of cash and end up with better hardware for it. It's not rocket science, anybody who can read a tutorial and a manual can build their own PC. The only thing you miss out on is tech support.

I usually go with AMD CPUs since they are just as good but cheaper, the 6 Core Phenom II Black Edition is a great deal and fast as a hell. You can usually save even more money on newegg.com in a combo deal with motherboard.


Thanks for your thoughts!  Someday I do hope to build my own, but I'm very much new to this and don't feel like screwing up something that expensive at this point in my knowledge
