I try to avoid power supplies that have the word "Ultra" or "Max" in them with the exception of Enermax (really good power supplies).

"Decent" isn't quite good enough for me when there's thousands of dollars of equipment at stake. Not only that, but "decent" doesn't quite cut it when you're trying to overclock and squeeze every last drop of performance out of your system.

That said, I'm sure it would be fine for somebody not running as an aggressive or expensive setup.

thousands? if you were running a 2k dollar computer aka 1000 woth of cards (7800gtx in sli) 200 dollarish motherboard (asus a8n32-sli) 2 gigs of ram (200) now lets say you spent 500 on your processor.

why the hell would you overclock that computer?
