Seasonic S12-430

Also, check the dates when those "reviews" were published. X2 has been out for quite some time and most boards should have a new board revision and/or new BIOS to support them already.
Now, to throw a curveball here: if you are going to do more 3d modeling and stuff, wouldn't you need a Quadro FX 4500?
As for CPU, I would think going one speedstep lower will be more worth it? The 4800 most likely has less OC room.
And for PSU, unless you know that model you listed is a good brand (not a good sign when no one here has heard of it), please get one of those that were listed here. With that kind of money you can't afford to have a bad PSU.
