MoBo and PSU troubles!

So, I've bought a:
BFG 8800GTX
C2D E6600
22' Acer monitor


all for my rig I'll be building anytime soon. I need some suggestions on a good PSU to power an 8800GTX. Also, I'm having alot of trouble deciding upon a good, affordable MoBo. If you plan on linking to a component, please do so from www.canadacomputers.com , because that's where I'll be purchasing the components.

That looks like an awesome PSU for the price. And I had never even heard of Directcanada. Free shipping here I come. And I don't plan on SLing.
Geez you just gave me another good suggestion for buying parts here in Canada. I was with NCIX but after seeing the 8800GTX for $100 less I've jumped ship.Thanks TC!
