This is without the mousepad, keyboard, speakers, and wrist pad for keyboard because I already had those items. This is also without Microsoft office or Mcaffe virus scan because I already had those. All of these items were bought from Newegg, t3h bestest in the landz0r! Soon I will be buying AM2 with an AM2 compatible mobo and ddr2 RAM since AM2 will be able to do that. I don't think I will run SLI for awhile, there really is no point for a gamer like me to unless u want to have a big e-penis and be like, hey I got SLI. I really need to clean my wires out so my sexy airflow can be at full sexilicous capacity, but I am a lazy boy.

Why you bumping?... Fine I'll answer: dangerous.

That's a powerful system you have (compared to mine) and that's a (mostly) no name PSU = danger...

System Specs

Yeah the PSU looks a little flaky, but the specs look ok on it.. For instance my Antec 550 watt true control (using a 20 to 24 pin adapter) works fine and the 12v rails are RATED less than the the dual rails on that less known brand PSU.. so if it works, good enough right? I would have gone with a better brand name though.

It looks like a good gaming rig to me. I am not a fan of the monitor though.. but if you like it who cares what other people think. I gotta ask, if you don't mind, how old are you- I am just curious?

I would seriously reconsider another PSU. OCZ or pc power & cooling... etc

I would say that there is no problem with the psu. It`s even nvidia sli-certified. Nice computer anyway. Keep the PSU! Sunbeam is good brand! No-name psu...bah. NO DANGER. Just play and have fun with the new comp. . And you can always monitor ur voltages.
