Alright, i got the conroe, gonna hook my 600W Enermax to that thing, with the grafics card and everything.
Now I want to run the other rig until I sell my parts here in germany/do whatever with them, but I only have 2x 300W PSUs here, and I can't be bothered to go out and buy a new one for this short amount of time.
Things that will be hooked up to this:
SLI-DR Expert
X2 4400+ (probably will take the OC out, what do you reccomend?)
2GB Infineon CE-6 @ 2.5-3-2-6
Voodoo something 32MB PCI card (or w/e it is, some 32MB PCI card)
1x 13GB IDE HDD
like 2-3 fans...

so is there a possibility to run 2 PSUs for one rig?

i think you could get away with 300w if you unclocked ya cpu


Edit mybe not the 4400 is 110 watt : /
sdy284
true, the 4400 is 110watts...but what else in the system is goin to draw 190 watts? that 32mb graphics card sure isn't

Specs of PSU? And I think that PSU will run that sys just fine. I mean, you have a 110watt CPU, mobo and ram maybe like 40 watts at most... then all then the other spare stuff, 40 watts at most... so 200-250 watts at most

Agreed. If it's a half way decent 300w PSU then I'd just give it a go running off one of those.
And of course, it's possible to run both of them if that doesn't work.

its a 65W CPU, the PSU has 12-15A on the 12V line, but I can check the other one later and see if thats got some more...
firky
eh only 65w :S
