    JonnyGuru on the Signature 650W. If their recommendation is worth anything, I think Colgere will be okay. ;)

    I also found this review (in addition to BuddyJ's) that I read before buying it. Seems pretty thorough.

    For those who don't know, JonnyGuru reviews of PSUs are some of the best, most thorough testing done on the net. Hardware Secrets also uses a real load tester. If you wanna really know if a PSU is good or not, this is the only way to test things. Don't let other reviews blow smoke up your butt.

    From my talks with AMD, they're suggesting the AM3/DDR3 boards will likely have some bugs that need to be worked out with with BIOS updates and revisions. For the sake of stability, AM2+ is my choice.

    That's a hell of a tip. Thanks for the heads up...

    Just an update, I've finally gotten all the parts in and built the system (in fact, using it right now. :) ) Thanks again to everyone for your help.
