Guys,
First off I have to order a power supply in the next few days. I need
advice on what to order. Price is a concern, but I am willing to spend up
to $200 shipping and tax included, if there is shipping or tax.
I am looking at this supply,
http://www.maxpoint.com/products/pow_supp/spec_pg/noistakerax2/index.htm#
The Enermax Noisetaker AX 2.0. It offers excellent specs, even the ripple
on the 12V #1 rail is very low so that the CPU/RAM get a clean source for
better overclocking etc.
My system specs will be these:
Asus A8V (later on I may end up getting a SLI motherboard)
1 up to 2 Gig (2 to 4 sticks of RAM) in Dual Channel mode. Possibly either
Patriot or OCZ TCCD RAM
A Sapphire 9600 Pro vid card (will be a better card later on obviously)
Up to 6 hard drives (Important to me) 4 in SATA two in PATA.
1 DVD Burner
1 CD Burner
Several fans, 1 CPU, 3 to 5 Case fans run at lower speeds via fan control
for quietness but improved air flow (1 top blow hole, 1 or 2 rear, 1 facing
CPU/Video card(s) 1 to 2 in front of case, depending upon the case, I want
to keep the hard drives cool, they get hot).
2 Cold Cathode lamps (I have them, so I might as well use them).
Added Sound Card with Live! Drive.
Case will be a full tower until I build my "hand made from scratch case" in
a year or so.
So... I want a Power Supply that will support a high performance AGP video
card for now, but will support a PCI Express SLI setup later, and all of
the above specs. I have calculated that it would be best to get a good
strong 600Watter at least, since I will be eventually running a lot of hard
drives as I accumulate them.
If there is a case comperable to this Enermax case for a lower price let me
know, and no matter what, I'd love some opinions on what cases you all
like, where to get them, and what *you* use.
