7950 is crossing 20k
400r is little small cabinet and with less features and less fancy.... I'm just in love with cm storm Stryker
I haven't got the prices of some parts as I planned to upgrade them according to my budget

don't get one 3tb .....get the 1 tb black and 1 tb green from wd

the sapphire 7950 vapour x is really really cool...the vapour x technology works and is overclockable to meet a 7970 plus more on stock cooling

the gs series is not advised as the psu is one of those components that are future proof or you don't change then often therefore get the tx series its great

the 1tb black + 1tb green would be around 9800.....the 3tb cost 9+ if i am not wrong...

the difference between the gs600 to the tx650 are quality and efficiency

the tx has japanese made capacitors which last long and are the best money can buy
the tx in terms of efficiency is a 80+ bronze

corsair sets up its psu's in this order AX<HX<TX<GS<CX<VX

GS series is also 80+ bronze certified.
TX series comes with 5 years warranty. GS comes with 3 years.
