I bought a new system today, and it should get here within a few weeks.

Opty 165
DFI LanParty NF4 UT
WD Raptor SATA
2gb Corsair
6800GS

I plan on OCing a lot and have a couple extra drives. I was wondering if this power supply would be able to hold up. I haven't even used it yet and it's sitting in a box, so I really wouldn't want to waste it. Well, here it is:

I'm probably going to need a new one... what do you guys think? I do have two PSU's and maybe I can just ghetto rig them together with one of the stickies.
 
I cant quite recomend the Modstream its not as good as the Powerstream but if you have a lot of drives and want to seriously OC something around 500w would be good, think Fortron, OCZ, Emacs, Zippy, Sparkle, Antec, Thermaltake (they are ok), Enermax (just ok)
 
I have to recomend the Hiper range of PSU's they are cheap and offer very gd performance.
