    Even when gaming, you wont be pulling anywhere near 600W. Individual rail capacity is a different matter tho; you *might* be straining that if you overclock the CPU too far.

    Thanks for the power advice

    Added a pic to the first post of my SSD, complete with loaf of Marks & Spencer Sliced Wholemeal

    Oh and also I swapped out my 2GB of Super Talent for 4GB of Corsair XMS3 Classic 1600MHz, so I now have 8GB of RAM =]

    Agreed, but it's not worth cutting it that close with PSU's IMO, seeing as a ****e PSU will degrade you whole system performance and it's one of the cheapest components.

    I really like what you've built, it looks...serious!

    I need to get my hands on a PSU with threaded cables, they look far superior to a tangle of colourful wires
