What PS for this system...?

[grbrg]

P4 3.06GHz
512 MB (Dual)DDR
Gigabyte 8INXP
2x HD
DVD, CD
Radeon 9700Pro

My system is not stable and I suspect my power supply is not sufficient. So what would you suggest as a minimal power supply?

I would say you need at least a 400w name brand PSU. The Fortron 400w is a good choice as it's MAX output is actually 490w and it's cheap at only $60.

What are you currently using?

I'm using an Enermax 350W from my old PC... the seller thought it was enough but I have my suspicions. Rightly so it seems.

Where can I get it for $60? Those I found seem to be higher...

Try Newegg.com - I saw it there for $60 or so.

But Officer, I wasn't speeding - I was qualifying ...
