Hi all,

I'm new to upgrading systems myself and I want to put a new graphics card in my old PC.

The system will be:

2 sticks of DDR Ram (not ddr2 or 3)
2 160gb S-ata II, 7200rpm HDDs
1 DVD rewriter
Pentium 4 cpu @ 3.0ghz
8600gt 512mb

Some sort of Shuttle motherboard.

So the question is what wattage PSU do you think i'll need? Any help is much appreciated. Thanks. :D

That's a little vague..if you can tell us which motherboard you have..what your budget is...and what the need for the GPU is...it'l be a lil clearer
