I just ordered this PSU from Newegg.
Is this PSU worthy of my rig? Any comments or suggestions as far as adjustments go on the back?

Thanks.

It should work fine, but most would opt for the 520SLI for the fact that the 520 is a single rail PSU.
 
I have mine running my rig just fine... I can't say i have ever seen drops significant drops (12.15 stock-12.05 load) on my voltages which have been all tested under load and multimeter... I have never had 2 video cards with here but with 2 dvd drives 2 hard drives a 6800 ultra and my opty 150 and I have never had power problems with her. And they look really snazzy with that glossy finish.
 
I actually decided on ordering the 520watt single rail powerstream. I plan on running an SLI rig in the future and wanted the single rail benefit. After having about 5 or 6 people in the ATI forum talk me out of the 600 I finally made up my mind today.

get the OCZ 520 powerstream. If your going to spend more for a PSU then get the 510 PC power and cooling, other wise get the 520 powerstream the 600 powerstream has split rails and is a POS compared to the 520..

dont let the "600" fool you

if your plannning to go X_fire you'l need a 850 pc power and cooling lol

Good choice. Like rattle said...if you have the loot go for PC P&C, but if not the OCZ will do what you want.
