correction actually cheaper comes with a rebate.

Duly noted I have the same power supply in my computer and had no problems, but i've heard good about the corsair as well and its cheaper so

Why not this 4890? you get an awesome warranty coverage when you register the product.

Looks like you've done your homework. Good build.

There is currently an amazing deal on the Corsair 620HX ($70 after rebate) which is a modular PSU.

I see you changed the video card and power supply. Thanks for taking our suggestions.

A tip on the 4890, keep the fan within the 20%-40% range. Anything above 40% I've heard will be noisy.
