i'm waiting for xp 1800+ 's price to drop, and i'm just searching for other components. I think i'll go for Lian-li pc65 case. but they only have enermax 430w for PS. Their price seems to be pretty low as well. Will i ever need 430w?? or is it just wasting my money on something i will never get to use.. i need your advise..

oh .. btw. i don't know which mobo to get . i guess everybody has different taste.. heewww~~~ when will i get my comp built.....

430 watts is plenty. 350 watts will suffice for even a loaded system.

Then again, 430w vs. 350w isn't that much more.

I'll take the 430, please.

:tongue: Have you ever tried cooking an egg on your HSF? Tasty. :tongue:

If you are going to use multiply HD, a Geforce 3, and an AMD system, 430 is good to have. As with most things, it is better to get to much than get to little and damage your components.

If it works for you then don't fix it.
