Haha my unbranded 500W psu can handle 2 hard drives, cd drive, 3 case fans and a 1GB 5850. Don't know how but it's pretty impressive.

I've gone and ordered the mobo and card from CL.

$50 more but CL and Playtech are trusted retailers and I don't mind paying a premium with CL.

Yes, but Noel Leeming are a suffering chain store. They only make profit on finance deals and are constantly in the shit. Hiring in-house techs and to pay money to brands in order to license those techs so they can make repairs on site would to be pricey for them.
