Hi guys, I am going to start building my first pc from scratch soon and I forgot about the power supply. I don't know if I can just use an old power supply from any old pc or if I need a new one to accomodate the new components I'm buying. Below is what I will be building the PC with. I may be upgrading the CPU down the line to a quad core or better so the power supply would need to be good enough to handle future upgrades.
Can anyone recommend a good power supply for this setup or at least tell me what kind of specs I should be looking for.
Motherboard: GIGABYTE GA-EP45-UD3P LGA 775 Intel P45 ATX Intel Motherboard
CPU: Intel Core 2 Duo E8400 Wolfdale 3.0GHz 6MB L2 Cache LGA 775 65W Dual-Core Processor
RAM: (qty 2) of Mushkin Enhanced Blackline 2GB 240-Pin DDR2 SDRAM DDR2 1066 (PC2 8500) Desktop Memory Model 991599
Harddrive: Western Digital VelociRaptor WD1500HLFS 150GB 10000 RPM 16MB Cache SATA 3.0Gb/s 3.5" Internal Hard Drive
Harddrive 2: (qty 2) Raided 120 GB generic SATA Maxtor drives
Thanks!
