I seriously doubt you will do any better than that. $100 off, and a $25 MIR?!?!
That's a great deal. Are the racing stripes extra? LOL
Seriously, take out the credit card right now and buy it. Nice find

You really want to buy the best PSU for your Rig. It is the Heart or the Lifes Blood of your machine and its a very very important component. Yes there are other cheaper. But with power supplies you get what you pay for and you are getting one of the best. The OCZ will probably run alittle cooler and have a Higher peak output.

I would suggest this corsair:
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16817139006

I have it, a single 60amp rail, 750 watts, and a thermally controlled 140mm that Iv never heard. Its only $99 after MIR too.

i wouldn't even bother with that antec. you can get a PC P&C or corsair for cheaper than that antec. the corsairs and PCP&C have a single rail, which in my experience, provide "cleaner", more stable power than multiple rails. i have the corsair 750TX, i would probably never even hit 70% load for that psu, but my voltages are rock solid, and that's what matters to me.

If Jonnyguru gives it a 9.5, it must be good!

Corsair is great, but that doesn't mean I'm going to pay for it. Antec gets my vote, because they have excellent PSUs, and no price premium.
