The 600w is not as good quality as the 520w in my opinion. For the price of the 600w, you may as well go PCP&C 510. If you dont want to do that, why not ask a fellow OC'er to purchase and ship the 520w out to you?
Also the Sparkle 700 is cheaper than the OCZ600w anyway...

Noisetaker is a good choice.
BTW, why get that ABIT board? There are cheaper/better boards out there.

Seasonic - rock solid and one of the quietest fanned PSUs to boot.

The Seasonic 600w would be a great choice if you like quiet computers, but if you have a 40dB fan or something loud you may as well not bother.

I know abit makes good boards, but with the Fatal1ty board you are just buying a name.

its too late now, he's got it...
c'est la vi...
and try overclockers, (http://www.overclockers.co.uk/acatalog/Online_Catalogue_Power_Supplies_123.html) they have some good psu's... would recommend fsp (sparkle), but my mate has a tagan, and that thing is ROCK SOLID... he has the 480, but the 580 should be good.
i heard that the powerstream 600w wasn't worth getting, as it just wasn't stable compared to the 520w. dont risk it.
try xcase too, they might have a better deal:

or www.scan.co.uk, or www.dabs.com, or www.aria.co.uk
good luck dude.
