 450W PSU Enough? The PSU I have came with the case. Its an EZCool 450W, admittedly quite loud but does the job. At the moment I'm running E6750, 8600GT and just the one HDD. I'm planning on upgrading to an 8800GT at some point. I think 400W is the minimum, but do you reckon i should upgrade mine to Enermax, Antec maybe 600-700W just to be safe. Trying to do it on a budget but dont particularly want the hassel of having to buy a new PSU (or worse) if mine decides to die a few weeks/months in. Thanks |

| 450W PSU Enough? If your planning to invest in a power supply my advice would be don't go for the cheapest, if it fails which to be honest being cheap mean's it don't last forever it will more than likely take your motherboard with it and possibly your cpu and ram, could end up being costly

| 450W PSU Enough? 500W is bare minimum.

| 450W PSU Enough? I opened up my case, turns out the people i bought my computer lied to me and put in a 500W EZCool PSU not 450W. I still think that if i get an 8800GT I'll get a new PSU, better to be safe than sorry. Thanks for the help  |
