Which power supply?

What is the best power supply with 500 watts?

go f*k your self with your stuped answer i said give me a good power supply so that means no cost is involved but for you i think it's too hard to understand so here:

sweet PSU, i have one, runs dual X1900XT's with my Intel Pentium 4 EE

Why are you insulting Pengwin? He gave you a link with a PSU that might suit you. So, it doesn't matter if someone helps you or not, you'll just insult him/her.
That's not right.
And it's not right either to expect anybody else to do the job for you. You can't come here and say: "Hey, I want a PSU. Give me one". I think no one feels comfortable with orders, do you?

ok, If you're going to insult me please do it correctly, atleast spell the F word right, like this

second. Im sure your "ass" is smelly and disgusting, so I will take a rain check on the kissing part.

thrid, I'm not a female, a dog, or pregnant. so the B word doesnt pretain to me.


Next time you insult someone make it a decent flame. typing random curse words that pop up in your puny head make you look like a 9 year old who has seen 5 minutes of The Sopranos.

HAW HAW

Thegodfather huh, prolly meant god backwards... so you are
The Dog Father! or another word for a Dog Fucker, you sick bastard!

The degree of irony this phrase has left me completely speechless.

Lol.

for that price you cant go wrong with an antec truepower 2.0 with 480watts

HAW HAW

Funny thing is, I already corrected his spelling of "stupid".

God you really must be stupid... You should change your name to TheStupidFather....

First you can't even spell stupid

After swearing at me he actually gave the spec's like I was going to help him...

i think there are other ways to explain his immaturity and short temper other than being 5.

Pinecone up his a$$ (makes sitting in front of his compy uncomfy)

I would whole heartedly recommend the Magnum XG. It's very conservatively rated at 500 watts, and within the last year, the price has fallen from around $140 to around $100 ($110 retail). I bought one last year after breaking 3 power supplies in 5 years, and I think it's great.

It has a lifetime warrenty; very quiet (only 1 low rpm fan burried in the middle of the psu); large amounts of passive cooling; and an LCD readout of temperature, power usage, and voltage on the 12v line. The most impressive feat it pulled off was when a couple of my Cheetah 15k drives failed (wouldn't spin up). If I had either of them plugged in, the power meter wouldn't drop below 999w. It ran my computer for 20+ minutes without failing, and with both hard drives plugged in.

The only downside is it's size. It uses a heat pipe and radiator that sticks out of the back of the case (you might need to modify the opening in the back for the power supply so it fits). It is also longer (extends closer to the front of my case) than any other power supply I've owned by probably an inch or two, so it was a tight squeeze to run cables between it and a couple of hard drives in my 5.25" slots. If you have a newer, larger, nicer case, then it shouldn't be too much of a problem, but my I have a cheap full-tower from '98 so it's not all that large from front to back. You can probably find the size on Google to make sure it fits fine. I eventually extended mine out of the back of the case so I could fit a bay for 3.5" drives in front of it.

i would think comp usa is better than my local fry's, cuz ive overheard a few conversations there that made me raise an eyebrow. not everyone that works in those stores has good advise. some of the employees are just looking for a good comission.

if you are wondering, no im not an optimist.
