Al Biggs Posted January 25, 2006 Posted January 25, 2006 Folks, what do you think of using the Enermax Liberty ELT620AWT modular 620-watt power supply with the LanPartyUT nF4 SLI-DR Expert? I'm just now ordering stuff for a new machine. My friends say they're tired of hearing me talk about it, I should just do it, so I'm doing it. It's gonna be Intel-free and Microsoft-free. So far I've ordered the mobo, case, fans, memory, and video. (None of it has arrived yet.) I'm skimping on the video for now (bankruptcy looms), but I don't want to skimp on the power supply. What they call "modularity" in PSUs seems to amount to detachable (substitutable?) cables, which I would like. I would also like reliability and power to spare. Thanks! I feel less lost and alone already! ~~Al Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Dynamic Posted January 25, 2006 Posted January 25, 2006 Well, its got two 12v rails with 22amps each which should be pretty good i think. If you have money and want to get a high end CPU get the San Diego 3700+ with the 1meg cache, you'll be able to overclock that to 3.0GHz max with the right cooling and voltages. That CPU is around $233 i think. Others might have different opinions, other opinions are welcome. Oh and what's the et cetera, a case?

nitemareglitch Posted January 25, 2006 Posted January 25, 2006 How much is the Liberty runnin' yah? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Al Biggs Posted January 25, 2006 Posted January 25, 2006 NewEgg has the Liberty for $175, Nitemareglitch. The San Diego looks good to me, too, Dynamic, but I'm hearing the call of the dual-cores. I want to get a Linux kernel that does symmetric multiprocessing and put it to work. The "et cetera" is at least a hard disk, a CD (DVD?) reader/writer, a floppy drive, a monitor and a keyboard, I think, to get a minimal system running. The case is already on order. It's all transparent heavy acrylic. I want something that will look good and/or interesting even to small children or, say, my parents. They can relax and watch das blinkenlights. I've learned one thing the hard way already. Don't just key a bunch of stuff you don't wanna lose directly into one of these windows! It's too easy to lose it all! Type it up off-line and then copy and paste it! Thanks, y'all! ~~Al Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
