So I have to replace my PSU because it's making rattling noises (bought a really crappy CoolerMaster--won't do that again). It's still under warranty so I'm going to RMA it and get a new one but I don't want to be out of a computer for 3 weeks while the RMA is going on.
I've thought about either getting a 450W or 550W Corsair since everyone on here seems to like them but I'm planning on upgrading to Nehalem next summer and would like to not to have to throw it away if I can keep from it and am wondering if the 450W will be sufficient to power Nehalem? Some advice would be much appreciated.
Thanks.
Oh, and fyi I'm not planning on doing SLI or Crossfire and will probably be running a fairly inexpensive graphics card since I don't do much gaming.
