Hey guys-
I've just started buying parts, and when I woke up this morning I saw that Newegg has the E8400 and the Thermaltake W0106RU (http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16817153039) for $200, with free shipping. I've been planning on getting the Corsair 520HX, based off of great reviews and recommendations, but the CPU and PSU for $200 is really a pretty good deal.
Question is: does anyone have any experience with this PSU? Would you buy this PSU if it were you? I did notice that it doesn't have an 8-pin PCIe connector (not that I'm going to be needing it with the GPU I plan to buy), but would that hinder me when it came to GPU upgrading down the road?
Thanks
