I also heard Antec makes a good power supply, http://www.anandtech.com/ tested some power supplys a while back and gave them the best score.

I use an Antec 400W PSU. It is the "Rock of Gibraltar". I highly recommend it.

As the new Mod(congrats hoot) said the Antec PS is sweet and so is the case that it comes with.

I have 2 overclocked Birds with Antec 400w psu's. So far they have proven to be the best psu's I have ever owned, stable and reliable.

89 is bad cuz you can get a case too! get a nice case for about 30bucks more or a sweet tower sx1240 for 140! shop around and look at http://www.antec-inc.com for the two fan model.

I have an Antec 1240 with the 400 watt PSU. The PSU is great, and the 1240 is positively cavernous. You can buy direct from Antec. Mine was delivered in two days UPS ground.

onvia.com and egghead.com used to sell Antec cases at better prices than the Antec site. I haven't checked in a long time but it might be worth a look.

Personally I like the Antec SX840. I don't see the usefulness of the SX1240. What do I need with 6 5.25" drive bays??!!! With 80 gig HDDs being available now I can't see needing more than 3 3.5" internals and 1 3.5" external. 3-4 external 5.25s should be plenty.
