Power Supply
« on: April 03, 2004, 06:13:26 PM »
OK I need a GOOD quality 500 watt  power supply to replace my POS failing power supply.

So what's a good brand that'll fit an ATX case. I'm running a Gigabyte GA7VRX motherboard, Athlon XP 2600 processor, 768 MB DDR 333, gonna be upgrading to a Radeon 9700 pro video card in about 2 weeks, a 30 GB Maxtor hard drive, Sound Blaster Audigy sound card, a 52x cd rom and a CD-RW(not sure on speed of burner, Im at work) also I have 3 case fans and a Volcano 7+ processor cooling fan.
So I need watts and lots of them. :-)
Thanks for any help!

get an antec 430 true power (there guarrenteed) and will support what your running easily

thats what i have in my H20 cooled pc and its oced to hell with a 9600pro in it, nice and stable

beware of the cheap 500-600watt ps's you actually better off with a good 350watt then one of those . the 430 runs around 70 $$$ us .
