Title: Anybody using an IC7-MAX3?,,
Post by: WhiteHawk on October 14, 2003, 08:58:23 AM

Need to know if a 350w power supply is gonna do the job.  
I will only have 1 HD running and very few other power supply drainers, but the abit forum seems to imply I may need something special.  (my account isnt active yet so I ccant post a direct question).

Thnx

The motherboard itself may be ok, but when you add the 9800Pro in the equation, you may be pushing it a bit, especially if you do any overclocking at all.
I would suggest the Antec 430W TruPower supply for that combination.  480W if you plan on adding any burner hardware.

I am running a enermax 430w PSU.
And I think I may go to a 550w
