Wouldn't you know it...I pull the trigger on a 520W S12II on Fri for $74.99 and today the 620W is $69.99 with a 15% discount. Too bad the 520W has already shipped...

Buy the 620W and return the smaller one as soon as you receive it?

Between $10-15 for shipping and $7 for restocking means there is no monetary advanctage to doing it. System:
Intel BOXDH67CLB3
Core I3 2120
HiS 6950 1GB
Crucial 2x4GB
1xSSD, 1xHDD, 1 DVD/RW
Couple of case fans
Corsair H80

Don't plan on OCing or CF/SLI so the 520W is more than powerful enough to run my rig. I'd get another 100W, but the difference in efficiency at the load levels i'll be at are minimal. Would the 620W be sweet...yes. Do I really need it...maybe no.

No distant selling regulations that I'm aware of...buying from Newegg.
