Fixed.

Just an FYI about netiquette. Nobody really cares that you're in love with Newegg. It's a PITA to click on each link just so we can figure out what parts you're buying.

Why THAT particular power supply?

Simply price?
 
sorry about the links. And yes i was looking at that Power supply for the price, and the wattage.

edit:

Well after even more research i see its multi rail and from the very helpful links i see that that is not always the best. Could someone explain more about modular power supplies and how they are "better"/different?

What are the advantages besides having less cable clutter?
 
I'd recommend something else. Amperage > wattage, and the OCZ also exceeds ATX spec for ripple.

Modular is exactly that: You only plug in what you want. It's quite useful.
 
Ok, my new number 1 choice is now the Corsair 620w modular. Better choice in your guys opinion?
 
Single 12V rail.

I have an ocz 520 watt power supply. I love it a lot and was thinking of getting the ocz 700watt but i believe after a couple of reviews a single 12V rail is better then multiple ones.
 
Thx for your help guys i have decided on the Corsair. That was the last part to my rig. After months of research i have finally purchased it all and the pieces are on the way! :)
