How much power? Can't find power specs

[Guest]

I'm having trouble finding the power consumption specs for various components in my PC. I need to know them for several reasons, but I just want to focus on how to find this information.

At the top fo the list is my AMD Atholon 64 300+ Venice. I found a tech sheet on AMD's website for this proc but it listed several different wattages. I'm trying to determine what the peak amount of power is for this processor.

Next is the EVGA 7600GT vid card. On their website the tech sheet says nothing about power consumption. Any ideas?

You need at least 400W for that GPU. I would suggest at least 500W and a good brand such as Thermaltake, Corsair and there are a few others out there.

67watts for the cpu.

Took about 10 seconds to google it.

The 7600GT will pull less than 40w.
I don't recall the exact number and don't have time to google at the moment.

Even the meager 305W-350W PSUs that Dell put in a lot of their home machines can power a 7600GT without problems.

Whoops. I saw 7900 lol. Sorry I flip letters and numbers sometimes. I agree with the above guy. 350w of a nice PSU would be good.

Hers's the power supply calculator again.

At one time I had that processor and card combunation and an Antec 380W power supply worked just fine.
