Quality over quantity with PSUs. Corsair and Seasonic are my primary choices (both readily available here in the UK, not sure what US availability is like though)
You would be surprised how low your PSU wattage can be for todays systems, as long as you buy a quality made PSU. Even with a fairly high-end gfx card, you can run a system with a 400-450W PSU and still leave yourself a decent amount of headroom for upgrades.

Sure enough, after some quick checks in the P5Q3 UM, I do......and it is qty=3. OK, went to Newegg and found this appealing choice: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16817703005 Comments? I am still researching the "size" issue mentioned in some comments/reviews. Has Seasonic stopped building? Or, are they just so popular now that they are mostly always sold out? Was thinking of the S12-600Wht. Have yet to find one though. But then, I do not use many different vendors. Hmm.....anyone have quality links.....?
