jammin Posted January 30, 2005 Posted January 30, 2005 Yeah a 400w should be able to do that no probs. Make sure its a quality brand if you want to upgrade stuff later though (vga etc...) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
lilkev715 Posted January 30, 2005 Posted January 30, 2005 It would help us if you told us the brand and model number of the PSU. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
UnderTakeR- Posted January 31, 2005 Posted January 31, 2005 X-gear is the brand, it came with my case Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
zigen Posted January 31, 2005 Posted January 31, 2005 ya know what the rails are on that psu? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
exeter_acres Posted January 31, 2005 Posted January 31, 2005 much more importantly than watts.... is the Amps for each rail, as zigzen mentioned   there are some 350W PSUs that are much better than some 500w PSU's Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
UnderTakeR- Posted January 31, 2005 Posted January 31, 2005 i have no idea O_O where can i see this? can a program like cpu-z trace that ? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
exeter_acres Posted January 31, 2005 Posted January 31, 2005 usually the information is on the sticker on the side of the PSU Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
zigen Posted January 31, 2005 Posted January 31, 2005 if you dont know what brand/model it is, the easiest way is to unscrew it from the case and have a look at the ampage ratings on the psu Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
lilkev715 Posted January 31, 2005 Posted January 31, 2005 If your PSU came with the case then it is most likely crap IMO. I'm not saying that all PSU's that come with cases are crappy, but the majority are. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
