If you can spend about $30 more, a 9800gt would probably be a better value.

The Antecs I've used have all been of excellent build quality. They may not be the best but for a budget build they're just fine.

I got 5 antec PSU's. No problem with one of them.
Tho if you throw them to the ground they might stop work.

I got this in many:
http://www.jonnyguru.com/modules.php?name=NDReviews&op=Story4&reid=35

Performance 9.5
Aesthetics 6
Value 10
Functionality 8
Total Score 9

Aesthetics at 6 is because it not so nice appearence and they cables aren't unpluggalbe (don't know the other word).
