a quality 600w PSU should be enough no problem

Puget is a good maker, also take a look at velocity micro, overdrivePC, and maingear if you're still looking for options all 4 are great

I'm not all that impressed with DigitalStorm's customer ratings.Puget seems well rated,but a bit overpriced.If you're looking for great customer ratings and prices,check out AVAdirect,too.

Yep look into AVAdirect, seems to be an amazing company!

If you're looking for a great computer at a low price, check out AVA Direct. Velocity Micro and Maingear are also great companies, but will probably be more expensive. I'd suggest configuring what you want at each company's web site. Puget, which you've already looked at, will also probably be more expensive than AVA Direct. Digital Storm hasn't made it into the top 5 companies that people here at [H] use.

AVA Direct has a LOT of choices in components, so be sure to ask here if you have questions about which will be best for your needs.

For me VelocityMicro is first class in my books. Not only are they English speaking from that far off place in Virginia, they really do come through when you need them. Each question I have asked has been answered, and a couple of glitches, one that I caused, was handle by the top team.

I had a Dell for 5 years, and they do not come close to VM, and if you need some hand holding, they will do it. No one is perfect, but they are very close.
