spanish pants Posted February 14, 2007 Share Posted February 14, 2007 Sorry guys, but here´s another ¨system recomendation¨ post. I´m currently putting together a new system and was wondering if my power supply was up to the task or i need to go with a bigger one. Running, Max 8, Vray, Photoshop, Autocad, XSI Asus p5b Deluxe/Wifi Intel Core 2 Duo E6600 2.40GHz GeForce 8800 GTS- 640MB Kingston 2GB 800MHz DDR2 (in the future 4 gig total) Thermaltake Armour Jr. case ( two case fans) 2-3 hard drives. Still unsure of what i want. 1 dvd player/burner Be-quiet! Straight Power 650 W PSU http://www.be-quiet.net/be-quiet.net/index.php?StoryID=13 I don´t know if you can get these power supply in the US but in EU they seem to get good reviews and are of good quality. Is this enough power for what i´ve got? Here are the specs if you don´t want to look it up. 650 W Power ATX12V Version 2.2 20/24 Pin Mainboard Connector 2x PCI-Express Connector 8x SATA Connections 6x 4 Pin Connectors (HDD) 1x 3 Pin Connectors (FDD) 1x 120mm SilentWings fan Active PFC with PF up to 0,99 4 separate 12V Connections 2x P4 Connnector (1xP8) 3x 3 Pin Molex fan Connectors Specification: 3,3V: 35A, 5V: 30A, 12V: 52A, 12V1: 18A, 12V2: 18A, 12V2: 18A, 12V2: 18A,-12V: 0,5A, 5VSB: 3,0A Thanks in advance.

AJLynn Posted February 14, 2007 Share Posted February 14, 2007 Yeah. Mine is like 20. You've got 180 more watts with 400 fewer MHz and 1-2 fewer hard drives. That video card uses a lot of power but that PSU would certainly be more than you'd need. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
