Default Corsair HX620

okay guys I am thinking of getting this one, I returned my 750tx because I didn't have modular cables. But here is what I am planning to run:

AMD Phenom II x3 720 OC'd to 3.6ghz
1x Western Digital Caviar Blue 160gb(maybe add a 500gb in the future)
4gb 2x2gb G.Skill 1600mhz RAM
CD Rom drive
2x Sapphire ATI HD5770 2gb RAM

and some water cooling in the future also. Will I be good/safe?

either the Corsair or the TT Toughpower which one?

The 620HX will be good enough to power your system, although I would get a 700W+ power supply for future upgrades.

If u are looking at water cooling, I may suggest a bump up to the HX750.

The Corsair hx620 is just fine for your system and an ok price after rebate. The Thermaltake isn't quite as good as the Corsair, but having a little extra capacity in reserve is never a bad thing. The Thermaltake and the tx750 are based on the same CWT design. If it were me I would grab the Antec TP-750. It's almost as good as the Corsair hx750 and just barely edges out the hx620. Plus it's the same price as the Thermaltake. If you don't mind ordering from newegg the TP-750 is $115 shipped and you get a $20 MIR.
