Well, everything appears to be running flawlessly now. I went with the Corsair AX 1200 PSU, I was going planning on getting the HX1050 which was $215 but Frys had the 1200 on sale for $265 with a 10 mail in rebate. The Sabertooth is ugly but seems to be perfect. all my temperatures are good and very low.
