I did take into account that one day I might get another GTX460 to run in SLI, or maybe upgrade to a more power hungry gfx card.
I also took into account that my next CPU might be partial to a few extra amps.
I assumed that a PSU capable of delivering 700watts would have a more "relaxed" life delivering the ~350watts of my system at full load than a 500watt version.
In other words, I spent a few extra quid in order to future proof my PSU to some degree.
