First time builder, and was wondering what's the best gfx card it can power? Looking at non OC sandybridge for processor. Sorry if its a stupid question.

500W, I mean it's Coolermaster, but generally i'll never buy a case with a PSU already thrown in. I like to pick my own PSU after other issues I've had. Coolermaster should be fine, but I personally like Corsair.

I doubt you'll be able to run any high-end cards with it, you'll be limited to mid-range. I'd bite the bullet and just buy a 650w+

Edit:
With that PSU you'll be able to run a 6850 or 6870 or a GTX 560 Ti

The supply itself hasn't had particularly favorable reviews, I'd stick with a more reliable PSU like http://www.overclockers.co.uk/showproduct.php?prodid=CA-042-BQ&groupid=701&catid=123&subcat=1083

That will run any card at stock no problem, though it won't cope with SLi or crossfire

That psu with the case isnt to shabby, its a long way from being a Qtec or iCUTE which are really crap.
