Will my PSU be enough?

[ravenrez]

Hey guys, I'm planning on getting a single 8800gtx, and a core 2 duo extreme 3ghz cpu. I have two sata2 hdd's, one dvd burner, and an audigy 2 card. I'm pretty sure my ultra-x modular psu (http://www.ultraproducts.com/product_details.php?cPath=37&pPath=157&productID=161) would be enough to handle this, but I wanna make sure just in case.

Thanks

this ones should yes. i would hold off buying anything tho, until the official specs for the card are released. i dont really think that they will use 300+ watts

i agree with mpilcfamily.

wait till the g80 is out and see what the power consumption
and specs are for sure.

Thermaltake is real iffy when it comes to PSU's. I can do you a really big favor and sell you my 3month old mint condition Silverstone Zeus for only $60.00. It retails for $139.99 and is one of the best PSU's out there period, with a high efficiency rating and a powerful 38amp single 12V rail.
It would easily be enough to handle your needs and would be highly recommended over the Thermaltake.

Thanks for the offer man, but I think I'm gonna get the card and try my current PSU and if it doesn't work, I'll go buy another one. I'll keep this thread bookmarked though incase I wanna take you up on your deal.

TT makes some damn nice power supplies, on par with silverstone, enermax, and Fortran. Rock-steady, looks nice, and I've yet to hear someone say anything bad about the Toughpower series. Can't go wrong with that if you want a good modular PSU.
