RAM: Kingston HyperX Blu 4gb ddr3 1600mhz

and im still gonna use my 2 hdd and 2 dvdrom from my old pc.

so yeah im still confused on what psu watts should i take. Because some psu calculators from the net gives me different answers.
 
Hi neon022,
500 to 600 watts should be more than enough ,
just go for a reputable brand name with a good warranty,
Corsair are good and offer on most of their power supply's a 7year warranty
evga now offer a ten year warranty on their new power supplys
Both models Stacks On Deck suggested are good
You might want to look at a modular power supply for less case clutter with unused leads
with a modular power supply you only have to hook up the leads you want and are not stuck
with a big pony tail of leads you wont use or need
