Please don't get that CX unit, they're total junk and you really risk screwing your components.  Direct your eyes to XFX's TS series.

A little more expensive but completely worth it please just trust here.

OK, thats what I was hearing other places, but I wasn't sure how reliable they were. Also, the XFX isn't available where I'm purchasing. Is this the correct EVGA?

Well it actually isn't (look for the G2) but it seems quite well done.

Ah! This must be it: http://www.memoryexpress.com/Products/MX50962

Is the other one any good, or am I better off cutting my risks and going with the G2? I'm trying to cut costs because I'm WAY over budget, but I really don't want to skimp on anything.

Check out the PSU whitelist in my sig. Should help you with that :)

My account is almost entirely dormant. Hope you all are having a grand time. Many years of fun were had here.

OK, guys, I just checked, and that PSU isn't compatible with my case! My PSU needs to be 160mm or less in length. I REALLY NEED help finding a PSU that will work. I have about 18 hours until I start purchasing (in person) and building!
