Under any circumstances do not EVER get an eXtreme series PSU. They are CRAP. You are better off with FSP Saga II 350W

^^Completely agree with you. Its a no go for eXtreme Series from CM!!and I doubt Saga II 350W will be enough to power GT240 but I may be wrong about this...

The Gigabyte Superb 460W is basically a re-branded FSP SAGA II 400W PSU and very good at this budget. It can easily handle your rig.
But the new one is available @ 2.2K and at 1.8K you can get a new FSP SAGA II 400W PSU. So I think you should go for a new FSP SAGA II 400W.

As everyone suggesting here, & it has already been suggested in various threads, DO NOT go for coolermaster extreme series PSUs.

get a quality PSU now like FSP 400W/Gigabyte 460W etc...as it is the important addition to your system
and you can buy speakers anytime without any hitch
