    i need some help

    I have recently purchased complete new components.
    i'm trying to build my own system.

    System:
    athlon 64 3000+
    XFX nvidia 6800G
    sata 120g
    512mb

    do you think a cheap 400 watt PSU is capable of powering this?

    or do i need a more expensive one?

    As posted in your thread in general hardware, get a tagan 400w and above and it will run it fine. And please dont multi-thread. You will find that the people above don't like it

    Didn't we go threw this already?

    I am running an FSP 530 watt... I like it and it runs great! I have 4 hard drives, a 120 mm fan and a 80 mm on it, also case lighting, 2 optical drives, graphics card and a secure IDE! ALL THAT IS ON THE SAME LEG! I set it up that way for ****s and gigles.... And it runs great!
