Going off early reviews Ivy Bridge is nothing to get excited about. And damn, I can't see temps getting any better, than the ES chips that have been tested.C_RuleIB might not be all that much to get excited about, but Panther Point is definitely worth waiting for. PCI-e 3.0 might not seem like a big deal right now, but if this guy's still running a Q6600, he's probably not the type to ditch a platform every tock cycle. Maybe two or three GPU upgrades (say five or six years) down the line he'll probably be thankful for the extra bandwidth provided.
For that I will direct you to Anandtech's power draw section of their HD 7750 review: http://www.anandtech.com/show/5541/amd-radeon-hd-7750-radeon-hd-7770-ghz-edition-review/23 As you can see that even on their test bed system which consisted of a very power-hungry Core i7 3690X, X79 chipset, 8GB of RAM and a single SSD (which is only about 5w less power use in a best-case scenario) the power use was only about 215w in a game like Metro 2033, which is considerably more stressful than most games. On a system like yours in a less demanding game I doubt you'll see power use go over 200w.if you say i believe you
but how can you tell ?

Dont get testy about it..... you only bring up cleaning and clean looking cabling as the only good point of having a fully modular psu when the fact remains that you can make a fully non modular psu look good also let alone a partially modular one clean it without issue.Let's follow what exactly happened here then:04dcarraher
You say something is useless. I explain why it's not.
You say that YOU don't care about that therefore it's still useless without even addressing the issue.
I have to assume you're being obstinate on purpose simply because you (and many others here on these forums) hate being wrong. I'm not going to bother explaining myself again, but I do wish you'd re-think how much help you're really providing people here if "proving" your opinions right is more important than being correct.
