power supply reccomendation

Myst112 · May 25, 2007

I currtently have the current system:
AMD Opteron 165
Foxconn NF4SK8AA-8EKRS mobo
1gb of ram
Geforce 6600GT
1 ATA drive and 2 SATA drives
400W PSU

Im planning to buy a geforce 8800GTS and i think my current PSu wont be enough

I have a limited budget and was thinking of http://www.fsp-group.com.tw/english/1_product/2_detail.asp?mainid=1&fid=49&proid=179

i use a corsair 520w and thats enough, and i have virtually exactly the same rig

What budget are we working with here?

Myst112 · May 26, 2007

100$ max

Wile E · May 26, 2007

$100 U.s.?

And will you consider mail-in rebates?

Wile E · May 26, 2007

Well, if mail in rebates are ok, and you can swing a couple extra dollars, I also suggest the Corsair 520HX.

OK... Thats actually freaky it's so similar :twitch:

and ive got an ide drive plugged in at the moment!, the only thing differents the ram (which makes no difference btw)

bruins004 · May 26, 2007

Right now the best buy in sub-$100 w/ main in rebates is hands down the Corsair HX520W.
It has a lot of juice in it

For other options look at this thread under the PSU section http://forums.techpowerup.com/showthread.php?t=30822

Also, it will help you learn some basics too.
