Hello,

 

My actual pc:

 

E6750
silent asus square
Asus P5KC
Antec nine hundred
8800 GT 512
2X 1 G Corsair xms2 800
HDD 500 Go seagate
FSP Blue Storm II 500 w

 

My 8800 GT does her job very well but I am thinking to buy a 3870 x2 soon. My question is: I'm wondering if the Power Supply I have now will work to run this thing ? I have seen many blue storm II 500 w with a 8800 ultra on their rig.

You can use the PSU calculator at http://www.extreme.outervision.com [...] orlite.jsp to figure your needs.
I remember reading a PSU review recently of a group of inexpensive ones. The FSP Blue Storm was the only one that passed all the tests. The others all failed, some of them violently.

There is ALWAYS a drone. Exactly where, or how many drones you will encounter may vary, but that there will be at least one will not.
