These tools are not very useful since they don't take many other factors into account and they never take efficiency into account.

Power Supply ThermalTake 430W TR2
Software XP Home SP2, can't wait for Vista SP1.
Only thing I'd want to add to that tool is the required 12 volt rail strength, that's a major factor when it comes to buying a new PSU. It says I need 272W, my 430W TT has me covered :D. If I were to upgrade to an X1900XT, it says I'd need 313W and doesn't mention anything about the necessary rails. Just out of curiosity, think I could run an X1900XT on a system like mine (18A on the 12 volt rail) ?

280w I got 420w with 32 amps on my duel rail.

307w (cpu @ 85%) 326w (cpu @ 100%) if I got my conroe system... Wounder if my psu would hold up if I used it in a conroe system for 4 months? I need to make cuts where I can imos (not the best place to make cuts eh but since I already have this psu.) Nope 336watts at 80% my psu will put out, better get a new one.

18 amps I think you need more for the xt, my 1900gt recomends 30 amps.

Would you be so kind and provide more details on many other factors?

btw, Amperes per rails - work in progress ;)

At least it gives you a hint on how much power you need..

OK, I need 470W, it says.. WIth a 7900GTX. :wtf:

I like people who register just to spam a linky to their site/program/etc. However:

390W for my old system. And 305 for my new setup, it's RAM isn't listed though, should add another 10-15W (Selected DDR2) Both are at stock speeds and 100% utilization. As for the new system I took a 7900GT though I'm not 100% sure yet that I'm buying that.

I expected both systems to waste more energy...
