Hello all, new to the forum but have been reading it a while. I'm building a new machine and would like some opinions. This is what I've ordered from Newegg. I'm pretty happy with it but am starting to second guess my powersupply choice. Is it good enough for this rig. I'm not going to SLI, at least for now and won't be overclocking.... much

I know this probably outdated for alot of you, but I'm coming from an athlon XP 1800+ so it should be a huge upgrade for me. Your opinions are greatly appreciated. Liike I said, my biggest worry is the power supply, but if someone sees something else that is a potential disaster, speak up
