450w psu is piddly and will die, them calculations never take into account that you will likely add 2+ fans, plug in a half a dozen usb things to charge and add another hdd or 2. Have a corsair 650w non modular in my pc and it's been going strong for a few years. Also avoid cheap psus and all the corsair "builder" series.
Also buy a bitfenix case, they are lesser known but a good brand and come coated in some funky stuff that makes them last well. Even the cheaper ones in the range have lower case psu and other funky stuff.

Thanks, guys - any other thoughts about hardware? I'm guessing I could buy this bits myself for cheaper.
