You planning on going 2 GPUs? If so i would go with the Corsair 720Hx, if not i would still go corsair. That PSU is in a lot of test rigs and if that lil thing can power a 9800gx2 it's worth it's weight in gold.

Another vote to Corsair 620hx. It is better at that price.

To answer most of your questions: (1) a fridge cannot cool a PC (2) 64-bit OS for over 3.4GB (3) If a PCIe card fits, it should work (4) Resolution, not screen size (5) If you have a question, it is not news (6) Report, not respond to Spam (7) Single-Rail/Non-Modular PSUs are not always better than Multi-Rail/Modular (8) Sequential does not matter as much as random for OS drives

Depends on your build, in this case the Corsair is a great product and will work fine.

I've got the Corsair 620HX in my rig, running 2 8800GT's like a dream. Beautiful PSU

620hx seems to be a very good psu (review), the antec seems a little on the expensive side for what it offers.
