not only that, the ps draws cool outside air through the vents on the bottom and blows out the hot air to the back of the case.

I love how they did put the PSU on the bottom. Discovered that in my Antec 900 Case.

Also, wondering why you didnt go with a module supply.

AMD is releasing their new line of video cards in october so I will wait till then to make my new gaming rig. Even if I don't buy the new ones it will drive prices of the older cards down.

I don't like modular power supplies, used them before and didn't like the way it was constructed and the overall quality.

new line = new architecture?
but it wasn't a concern for me, I've waited 3 years. it's long enough... that and I can finally play Crysis! on full detail and 16xAA! at 1920x1200.
