Ok trying to do my research but arrrrg its tough to do every 2 years, everything seems to change....

New build:

i7 920
1 x ATI 5850 (no crossfire planned)
EVGA 121-BL-E756-TR (micro-atx x58 board)
3 x 2GB DDR3 1600
1 x 80gb SSD (not sure still debating, Intel X25-M)
1 x 750GB 7200rpm drive (old seagate I got lying around)
1 x LG Blu Ray player (already own)

Was thinking of getting the Corsair 650HX should be enough... but PSU is always the toughest choice for me...

Any other thoughts on the build? I don't really believe in "future proof" I generally just get a new machine every 2 years or so (usually reuse HDD, BD drives etc).
