    I'm surprised it goes with a 500W PSU and not something like of at least 600W.

    Because it doesn't need it. One of the benefits of getting a prebuilt vs. building your own - they tend to have a very good idea of how to get the best value out of a budget.

    And yeah, what sort of bribe are you after on this one, guys?

    Yep, I was thinking about it a while ago, and the reason I was surprised is because a 500W PSU is powering a beast. It's a difference in between what manufacturers say about the power requirements of a card and what it really draws. I bought a PSU just because of the thought that my system might be underpowered when I start upgrading.

    I read the review of the case, pretty good PSU made by FSP, I'm using an FSP power supply myself

    Very nice rig. I too was surprised by the PSU, but I just had an argument on another forum about PSU requirement, where I took the stance that they are often exaggerated, so I probably shouldn't have been surprised.
