Haha, you ask if you can get anything better for the prices of those items you mentioned, then when someone asks for the prices you say it's irrelevant.

Thus, no, you can't get anything better for the 'prices'.

I was about to ask the same thing.
Anyhow it's now posted and just getting in the way of the question so lets move on.
I looked up a few stores to find that price is I guess about average for the psu while still seemingly expensive none the less. I like the thermaltake power supplys a lot, and mine is a TT brand psu. They have been making great strides in a high quality/high rating and peak points with active power filters making for a nice and stable psu.
Other brands are exeptional as well like antec and have great psu's as well.
If I went with looks and a good price tho compared to mine, I would have likely gone with the antec one you showed above, looks very cool and excellent cables.(never had seen it before)
Mines a thermaltake 480w and suits me very well tho.

If you can, compare prices locally through stores listed around here:

TT makes awesome units if you can stand the heat they push out. My 480 runs hotter than any power supply I can remember.

Oh, and someone congratulate me. This is my 4,000th post.
