Why do you need 600w? The power requirements of that rig are no where near that much. You plan on running some peltiers off your PSU or something? 
If you're dead set on 600w, then get the Corsair HX620

ok ok , i've decided for the 520W version of the Corsair HX620 (Corsair HX520) i just don't want to have to buy another PSU in the not to soon future.

Thankyou fo r your commetns and more suggestiosn are welcome the tfull listing of things i want is here:
AMD Athlon™ 64 X2 5200+, 2.6 GHz
ASUS M2N32-SLI Deluxe
e-GeForce 8800GTS 320MB Superclocked x1 (upgrade to SLI later))
Corsair Memory XMS2 1 GB PC2-6400 DDR2 RAM x2 (upgrade possibly)
Western Digital (WD5000AAKS) 500 GB SATA Hard Drive x1 (will add another later)
DVD / CD optical drive (mabe two optical drives)
sound card
so is 520W still over kill, as from what you gusy say 600W is,...

The libertys have a habit of dying after a little bit. The corsair model is probably perfect for what he's doing.

I'd recommend my current PSU- a Seasonic S12 600W... its been real good to me the last few months... the rails are very stable and the cooling fan does a real good job...
