do not know much about power supplies except that I currently have an iCute 400watt power supply and I am upgrading to the Intel Conroe E6600, and a 7900GT with 2 gigs of OCZ DDR2 667mhz RAM... and 2 harddrives, 1 sata 1 not....
now like I said I do not know much about power supplies, but common sense tells me that higher the watts the better the Power Supply will is, but everywhere i look I keep readin all this noise about 12v rails and how important this 12v plug is.... so I know that the 12v is a 4 pin that plugs on the top of your motherboard somewhere by the CPU....
I just wanna know what specs should I look for in the 12v department ??
this is the Power Supply I have my eye on right now, ______ Cooler Master 600watt _________ its exactly what I want a 600watt PS for under $100....... can anyone tell me if the 12v on this is good enough, and also whatta hell the whole 12v thing really is? I read the FAQ stickied above, but i didnt find any useful info..
thanks in advance
