What's the real story on Power Supplys?
I'm going to build a new PC with a E6750 cpu, X1950XT graphics card, 2 hard drives and 2 dvd-rw drives.
In another thread, people have recommended the Corsair 520W PSU @ £70! - that seems a little overkill to me.
Ebuyer has a lot of cheap PSUs like this one for example : Extra Value 550W Gold ATX Silent PSU @ £19.98 inc VAT. It has good looking rails with 12V @ 30A and 5v @ 35A.
Then I came across this : Huntkey True 450W PSU @ £32.89 inc VAT.
In reading reviews on ebuyer, a few bad reviews of the extra value PSUs said that "it's definately not a true 550W". Then I saw this one saying it's a True 450W - So what do they mean by saying it's True?
I filled in the PSU Calculator, and it came out with only 385W with the whole system filled in.
I don't want to spend more than I need to on building my new system, so can anyone recommend a PSU?
