I have never heard of the brand known as "Hiper".
Brand is extremely important when buying a PSU.
Is it well reviewed?

I recommend the Enermax 620 Watt Liberty PSU.
It is modular as well and is very spiffy.

The rest looks good.
 
i have the case and its really nice

i also have the fan and its nice also ;)

I changed to the Antec NeoHE 550W...
 
For the price you have listed on that PSU I'd suggest getting a PCP&C 510 Deluxe or something along those lines. Basically one of the best supplies you can get.

Also are the 7200.9s the new perpendicular drives or has anything else significant changed on them. I've been using a bunch of 250GB 7200.8s and they're going for like 85US. Might look for a performance graph and see just how much they improved because 138CA is kind of steep.

And of course it can't hurt to recommend a second 1900. Because 4 heads are better than 2. lol

actually i was looking at the PCP&C, still too expensive, the neohe 550 i switched to is only CAD$130...

7200.9 is the Seagate Barracuda 7200.9 SATA NCQ 3.0Gb/s 300GB 16MB Cache link

Yes, Hiper is a good brand, and their Type-R's are considered one of the better modular PSUs out there.
