PSU:how much is enough?

i would think 350w would be more than enough. i would suggest at least 300w though.

"What kind of idiot are you?"
"I don't know, what kinds are there?"

You'd be surprised at some of the PS that I see in some of the "cookie cutter" computers. Worked on a HP 4440 the other day (AMD 350MHz) with all the normal stuff and it had a whopping 100 Watt power supply in it! Also worked on an Emachines about 6 months ago with a 145 Watt PS, go figure! Anywho, a 300 runs both my NoCase computers fine. When NoCase Too was in the Aluminum case, it had dual hard drives and a CD burner.
Bottom line is that if money is no object, bigger is always better................:-)

I would also recommend a 350 Watt PSU.

lol, thats almost exactly the same system i have.

If its not broken, you're not trying hard enough.

300W as minimum, preferably 350W.

My dual-PSU PC is so powerfull that the neighbourhood dimms when I turn it on
