Byron Posted September 29, 2004 Posted September 29, 2004 I think 400+ will do you fine. The ultra x-connects are nice, thermaltake psu's are stable, and a few other brands out there. Basically the more you pay, the better quality it is. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Joost27 Posted September 30, 2004 Posted September 30, 2004 if u cant find the brand then its probablly a generic psu and that if u want something better get a name brand one... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vampire Posted September 30, 2004 Posted September 30, 2004 The brands to look for are mainly:  Antec Enermax Thermaltake  Those are proably the most common and best PSU's manufacturers availible. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

markiemrboo Posted September 30, 2004 Posted September 30, 2004 I'm looking at the OCZ PowerStream 520W thing unless there's better... my current one is 17A on the 12V line.. and the above is 33A on the 12V line... and i'm maxed out right now. Nearly double, should be fine.. right?? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

daniel Posted September 30, 2004 Posted September 30, 2004 No. ur right... I buy locally most of the time, but sometimes, when i have money i order it from new egg and then a master card service brings it to colombia... but the prob is that it is expensive... when i ordered a floppy drive and spire cooler and heatsink. the shipping cost was 18 bucks...... so thats y i want to buy things locally Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
