Eva_Unit_0 Posted January 16, 2004 Posted January 16, 2004 I have the Antec TruePower 430 and absolutely love it. I got it for 100 bucks exactly at compusa, but you could probably find it cheaper online. I'd recommend any of the truepower series. Either that, or something by Enermax.

crash Posted January 16, 2004 Posted January 16, 2004 I have a Thermaltake Silent purepower 480. It seems to be an awesome power supply. I run four 10k scsi drives, three optical, oc'd athlon/vid card, ect. lights and I have never had a problem with it. It has two fans, one that has a fan bus, loomed mobo power wire and a great look. Yeah, I have also heard great things about enermax and antec. One PSU that I noticed on www.tigerdirect.com was the Ultra 500. Right now you can buy the PSU and a chieftec dragon case w/ side window for $109 Canadian. The power supply lists for $109!!! Maybe worth it to check out. good luck! crash Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

kobalt Posted January 16, 2004 Posted January 16, 2004 (edited) The kingwin is a good PSU lots of recommendations even OCC award Check out the review http://overclockersclub.com/reviews/kingwi...powerreview.php Edited January 16, 2004 by kobalt Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mangar Posted January 16, 2004 Posted January 16, 2004 I had a Antec 400w but it wasn't stable enough for me. I chose the Enermax 465w, and I love it. It is very stable and I do OC my P4 2.4c with no problems. It cost me only $89 at Neweqq (my fav store). Hope this helps you. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nuclear Posted January 16, 2004 Posted January 16, 2004 (edited) I found this neat tool that will help you decide what wattage PSU you need. It's meant to be used as a rough estimate, but at least you can start somewhere.
