I plan to get this from newegg...http://www.newegg.com/app/ViewProduct.asp?description=11-129-115

Do you think that 430 watt psu is enough to overclock with and power everything in my signate? I also am wondering what length of rounded cables I should order?

Thanks again!!

Should power the system fine :)

Don't know about the cables though... don't have that case.

that is an antec true 430, it would run an overclocked dual barton system, let alone a single chip system

i have a chieftec dragon case and i have a 10" single device from mboard to hd, a 10" floppy cable and an 18" dual device for my CD-RW and i have xtra cable length on all of them. Dont get ones that are too long or your case will look really cluttered and messy. I got em all for like $8 off svc.com

I would think DoomArse's setup would be fine myself - IIRC it's a very similar or identical case... you'd be cluttered I think if you get 18" for the hard drives and floppy being closer to the board.

Doomarse, what bay do you have your cd-rw in? top bay or bottom? I'm curious on how far that 18" cable will reach.

I have a dvd drive in first bay and cdrw will be in second and hd will be wherever the antec puts it..I do'nt know for sure.

my cd-rw is in the top bay and you only need 10" for floppy and hd. They're both like 5 inches from my mboard

Don't buy rounded, just tuck a long flat cable under the motherboard. :)
