Hello,
I need help picking out a power supply for this system. I want a little more than I actually need just in case. I want this psu to have good cooling if possible. My last question is that when I buy my case are fans included or not?

Looks like a good build. I don't know your budget but for a few extra dollars you can get a lot better graphics card. For just $35 more before mail in rebate, $6 dollars more after rebate you can get an EVGA 9600 GT superclocked edition. I think you might be better off with a little more power behind the graphics. A company like HIS might not have great costomer support. I would be nervous buying something from a company like that. I have never even heard of HIS. I live in Germany and can not even open a page from them....whats that tell you?!? Thats my opinion. As with the case...yes the fans come with it. As for the power supply, I agree with Mr. Johanssen, antec are great power supplies. I have an Antec Neo Power 650w and love it. I would recommend this brand to anybody. As for the proc...there are quite a few complaints about the fan heatsink combo that comes with it...everything from noise to it just plain does not cool well, most people have written they use an after market cooler with it. Good luck with your build!

HIS is good ATi brand with a good reputation. the 2600xt is a good budget card with that iceq cooler (the highest rated cooler on the market) its a decent card and should be able to play most games on high (excluding crysis)
