I've been out of the loop for a while now.

I have an AM2 dual core rig I'd like to do some overclocking on and I'm looking for a solid
power supply to do it with. It's got to be reliable and must have a certain 'futureprooffness'
for upcoming quad-cores and high end DX10 cards. Maybe SLi as well.

My budget at most floats around $200 CAD.

Right now, I'm strongly leaning towards a Corsair HX620W power supply unit.

We don't know for sure how much power is required for DX10 cards, but it is better to be safe then sorry.

Thermaltake Toughpower 750W w/ SLi
 
The Corsair 620W will be fine for one DX10 (350W) GPU, for 2 you will need to add a Fortron BoosterX3 300W GPU PSU,
or purchase the new (ships 10-19) PC P&C 1KW with +12V@72A. ;)
