I think my psu is suspect for causing several things on my computer to give up the white smoke. If someone would, please recommend a good brand/wattage for comp. with a powerful video card. Your help would be greatly appreciated! Thanks!

From ww.scan.co.uk the 450watt CWT PSU comes highly recommended for value/performance.

I went a bit mad a while ago and bought an Enermax 550watt in a rather fetching shade of blue..

I have to agree on the Tagen 480W as it is one of our top sellers. The spec if as follows:
+3.3V 28A
+5V 48A
+12V 28A
-12V 1.0A
-5V 0.8A
+5VSB 2.5A
I hope that helps.
Cheers

thermaltake purepower 480w
stylish and with a bit of beef as well
The theremaltake aint to gd ive heard bad reports about it.
Ive got the Antec trueblue 480 Watt and its rock solid. if u want the best get antec or enermax but be prepared to pay for them.
I think the Tagen still has the edge on spec, but only slightly, I am not sure if it has a massive difference on perfromance, as they are both high end parts.
The Antec True Blue is a great choice of you have a Windows case, but if not the Tagen (which is a bit cheaper I think) would be a solid choice.
If your getting a case also I think one of the Antec LANBOY cases with a TrueBlue PSU fitted.
