I am going to build a new rig soon, and I am going to need a new power supply. My new rig will be:
Intel Core 2 Duo e8400
2x1GB DDR2-800 (will eventually add 4 sticks total)
Nvidia GeForce 7900 GS (I will upgrade to an 8800GT aswell)
2x120MM standard case fans
1x140MM LED case fan
1 IDE 120GB HDD + 160GB SATA2 HDD
1 Lightscribe DVD+/-RW Drive
I used the eXtreme Power Supply Calculator at http://www.extreme.outervision.com/PSUEngine
and got a tiny 274-Watts. Then I went to Newegg's Power Supply calculator, plugged in the same stuff and got 510-Watts. There is a bit of a difference between the two, and I don't know which one i should trust. Can anyone help me out here? I am not a overclocker either, everything in my system will be stock.
