Power consumption with Phenom

WojtasRed · Aug 24, 2008

I`ve Phenom 9850BE / Palit GeForce 8800Gt and Be Quiet 430W.
What you think? Isn`t power consuption to high for this PSU?

Can`t find my specs. Any help?

I figured its enough but am not to certain about phenom cpus power usage.

I found the phenom 9850 2.5ghz in the cpu list on that site and added 1 hd 3 120mm fans 1 dvd burner elc and it says minimum recommended psu 297 watts.

Be Quiet psus are the same as ocz's

You have enough power, but if your going to be overclocking that cpu much like to 3.0ghz+ you should consider getting something with more power for more psu headroom, depending on your cooling set-up that is.
