Hi, I would go #3 without hesitation and that psu is not bad for the price.I used the same model in the computer I built for my son and it's been going strong 24-7 for nearly a year now.

Well I wouldn't say I am a hardcore gamer but I do play alot of MMORPGs and I would go with #3. Forget the 6600 (option 1) performance wise your option 3 should beat it. Lets use know what you decide and good luck!! :)
