Not bought yet

Foxconn 6150K8MA-8EKRS Mobo
2x1gb GSKILL Extreme PC4000 DDR
Opteron 144 CPU+AMD 4-Pipe HSF
Ultra MicroFly MATX Case
X1900XT (likely the H.I.S. version with the ICE cooling system--Much like an ATI Silencer)
Intel 10/100 NIC
Turtle Beach Santa Cruz
NEC 3520a DVD-RW
80gb SATA hdd
250gb SATA hdd

I'll be looking at using this setup for a gaming/mobile rig, I was looking to overclock as well.

While I've been partial to FSP in the past, I was looking for something that'd perform well with such a setup as this. Something modular would be nice for this setup, but not absolutely necessary.

I've heard of possible problems lately with the Enermax Liberty line of PSU's, so I'd like some other suggestions as far as that goes...

Some that I've looked at,

http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.asp?Item=N82E16817101008 Tagan 530W
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.asp?Item=N82E16817256001 Silverstone SST-ST50EF 500W
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.asp?Item=N82E16817151023 Seasonic S12 430W
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.asp?Item=N82E16817103940 Antec NeoHE 500W

Or just stick with the tried and true FSP/Sparkle instead?

Thanks.

Anything is modular.
 
Enermax Liberty 400 or 500w PSUs are really really good.I have used 3 now in X-QPack/Foxconn systems (2 400w and 1 500w) and they run so smooth. Rock solid voltages and is modular.

The Liberty 'problems' is actually to do with the DFI RS482 not liking that PSU and nothing to do with the Liberty itself.

I have a Liberty 500w in my sig rig and powers all that with room to spare.

The RAM you have their is good for OCing, but if you arn't OCing then you might as well get some OCZ plat. or Patriot 2x 1GB. I would suggest a 74GB raptor for a system drive, making a 15GB windows partition then get a 250GB storage drive. The liberty line from enermax is great, a lot better then most modular supplies, I recommend it.
