Raidmax makes shit PSU's.

Get a Corsair HX520, PC Power & Cooling Silencer 610, or something along those lines.

If you're going to call something a shit PSU, at least source us a review. For all the average buyer knows, a five-egg average = win.

The HAF 932 case is really cool and has some great features... it's huge and has a lot of fans... very solid and it has cable routing behind the motherboard...I just bought one
it's on sale for 130 bucks at microcenter

and a good power supply is very crucial
i have used antecs with no issues and i think its a good idea to read a few newegg reviews on any brand... to get a feel on how good or bad a psu is...
Love is the answer

Are you serious?

Go read some tech sites/news, you'll see that Corsair, PC Power & Cooling, Antec, Silverstone, etc all have awards and been nominated best PSU-something-a-rather several times. Raidmax and all those other shitty companies do not.

The PSU he linked is $100.

This is $84 and then $64 after a rebate, and is way better than that Raidmax. For starters, it is made by a superior brand, plus it has one large single rail which is > multiple rails.

This is $94, and $60 after rebate and is also much better than the Raidmax, for same reasons as stated above.

With such options available, why even buy an inferior product?

EDIT: OH, and if you think the reviews on Newegg are credible, then lolz....

sorry un13, but Crazed is right.  Newegg reviews are a joke.  Half of them are "I fucking hate this thing I bought because it's not compatible with my system!!!!!!!!".  The other half are "I love this product, it works like advertised!  I make love to it every night!"

Raidmax makes some cheap (quality and price) cases.  That's about it.  I like to ignore that they even make PSUs.

in addition to what Crazed said this OCZ PSU is also very good.
