OCZ modstream 450W - im liking the price in the weekly offers section, would this be ok for powering a c2d e6300, 2gb ddr2 6400, 3 or 4 HDDs(mostly storage drives, so generally not in use at same time) a dvd-rw and last but not least.. a dx10 graphics card, definatly not one of the 8800GT/Xs, as i only have a monitor capable of 1280x1024, so it wouldnt be warranted. graphics card upgrade will be in january to a dx10, so obviously they will not be as power hungry then? and it'll probly be a 8700 or 8600, basically the highest power midrange, until then its a cheapo 6600GT. Oh, also ill be overclocking the CPU a little bit, im an amateur though, so generally dont touch the voltage to ram or CPU unless im following a guide, and im sure it'll be fast enough for me, coming from a 3500newcastle.

Comments, advice or suggestions VERY appreciated :)

I have the 520W OCZ Modstream. Gotta say it is 5/5, no problems, quiet and effective. Runs fine no issues. 3 Year warranty to top it off :)
 
It probabaly will managed but I always make sure I'm safe rather than sorry, so I'd go for summit a little larger like the 520w. :)

Just so happens I have the 520w Modsteam too.
