BFG 7800GT OC - purchased
Neopower 480w - purchased
SLK3000B or P180 - deciding

I would shoot for the 3000 since it is cheaper and it can pretty much OC about as good as the 3200+ I have the 3200+ @ 2.5GHz well a winnie though and well lots of people can take the 3000+ as far or even further.

the san diego will overclock higher and has 1mg cache

however the 3000 should hit 2.6 which is more than enough for your 7800 (which needs at least 2.2)
