Will this psu work with this motherboard?

[owenwxm]

Hello all, I am wondering if this psu,
http://www.tekheads.co.uk/product/Cooler-Master-Elite-500W-Power-Supply_40338.html

Will work with my motherboard,

I am relatively new to psu's, and I don't really know how to check for compatability, other than it needs to have enough power for your components.

Thanks in advance,
Owen

It will work but I do not ever recommend Coolermaster power supplies. You generally want to stick with Corsair, Seasonic, PC Power and Cooling, XFX, Silverstone, Enermax, OCZ, Antec and some of the higher end Rosewill units for quality.

What graphics card are you using? Here is a handy list of power needed for systems with pretty much every GPU to help you understand how much power you really need.
