Do I have enough power?

Hi All,

Building a new rig with the following:
Intel Core 2 Duo E8400 Wolfdale 3.0GHz LGA 775 65W Dual-Core

GIGABYTE GA-EP45-UD3R LGA 775 Intel P45 ATX

G.SKILL 4GB (2 x 2GB) 240-Pin DDR2 SDRAM DDR2 1066 (PC2 8500)

EVGA 512-P3-N871-AR GeForce 9800 GTX(G92) 512MB 256-bit GDDR3

Plus 2xSATA Drives, DVD-ROM

Will this PSU be enough?
BFG Tech LS SERIES LS-550 550W Continuous
Also any issues with this case let me know: (since the PSU slot is on bottom)

Any additional suggestions/comments/etc on my rig build please feel free...I'm more or less a noob to building comps ;-)

yes you have enough power.

wouldn't you rather have this 9800GTX+ clocked almost 100Mhz faster though? $5 more after rebate

No need for the 5$ more. he can OC it himself more than the 100 mhz

I will NEVER fall for the "Superclocked" scheme again :thumbsdown: :thumbsdown:

Difference is he was going for an original 65nm 9800GTX...I would gladly pay $5 to get a 55nm 9800GTX+ over the 9800GTX
