I am going to get a X1800XT in a couple weeks and im wondering if you think the Fortron 500W power supply would be enough, also i need ram. I was thinking about 2 gigs, i will be overclicking with my current dfi board so im thinking of getting the fortron power supply with mabe ocz platinum i saw on newegg, plz give me some recommendations and what are your experiences with good ram, thanks

Get an Enermax liberty 500w FTW.
Along with the G.Skill DDR500 2X1GB, which is now $178 AR. Apparently people are really getting good batches of UCCC's out of em.

Get a Tagan 480W PSU. A lot cheaper than the powerstream, but built like a psu that would cost the same. Look for reviews and you'll be sold. It comes in sexy black also (supposedly better heat absorbtion).

OO icic, the reason im getting a X1800XT is becuz i want a card around 350 dollars, plus it performs better than the 7800GTX for less price. I decided to get the G.Skill HZ ram becuz a lot of people are getting really good overclocks with them at xtremeforums. As for the power supply, i decided to go with the ocz powerstream, thanks guys.
