This is a better PSU than the one you mentioned

If you wanted to buy the other one just for the light don't do it since it can barely run the 8800GTS 640mb

If your going to spend that kind of money, get the Corsair 520w or the OCZ 700w, i would not buy a "Apevia" unit...

This is a good thread for help on purchasing psu's
