DevilMB3017 Posted January 10, 2006 Posted January 10, 2006 I'd suggest a 400-500 watt Antec TruPower. They should be right around the $80 mark, and they power your computer very, very well. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

ady1989 Posted January 12, 2006 Posted January 12, 2006 id say stick with enermax or antec. antec truepower or enermax noisetaker. you cant go wrong with those, they are rock solid and stable psus. look into 500+ watt psus, 400 is kinda not enough, 450 is still not 100% good.

ccokeman Posted January 13, 2006 Posted January 13, 2006 The powerstream is nice. I just got mine for Xmas and its quite a bit nicer than the Enermax i had. They both had juice to spare but the rails are tighter on the OCZ. Just a few words of advice, If you spend the money on a nice rig dont shortchange the system with a cheap or weak psu.
