Okay I think it time for a new power suppy and my antec 400w isnt getting me
enough amps for my 12 v how about this one:

if not got a better recomondation? That one gives 28amps more then enough
for my 2 hard drives 1 dvd-rw (wanna put my other cdrw back in to) and my
6600 leadtek card.

The specifications from the Antec website says that it only gives 22 amps on
the +12V side. It gives 28 amps on the +3.3V. Did you confuse something?

The TruePower 430 gives out 26 amps on the +12V, and looks like quite a bit
more headroom for future needs.
