    You can run any retail ATX power supply in the 410. I would recommend getting a modular PSU so that you only connect the wires that you need and put the others away until they are needed. This will help with not getting a clutter of wires that block the air flow.

    I went with a 650W modular, I have the Q6600, 2 DVD, 4 HDD and an nVidia 8800GTS in mine.

    A 600 would be fine. Just make sure the one you choose has the PCIe connectors for your video. I would look at Corsair, Thermaltake, OCZ, Antec. There are a lot of good ones to choose from.

    You grab them with pliers and twist then they break.  They are too old to flex open and closed as they become brittle.

    A recommended power supply is EVGA SUPER NOVA 750B1 SERIES.  110-B1-0750-VR

    B2 BQ G2 series DOES NOT WORK.
