I'd like to see which would be the best power supply to buy for:
1 x A64 3500+ Winchester (hopefully)
1 x Asus board
2 x 512MB RAM
2 x DVD writer
1 x GeForce 6800
1 x 160GB SATA HDD
400W okay?
I'm currently leaning towards a Zalman model... quiet is very good in my book!
Thanks in advance.
Go for a Tagan if you can afford it, it's geared for BTX, has dedicated molexs for HDD/ GPU's and is 100% silent
Thanks mate. I've heard problems with them "ticking" though?
what do people think of OCZ PowerStream 520w Power Supply? Looks good to me! Any views?
Last report I heard of them ticking was a fair few months ago. Spoke to a guy from Tagan who assured me there wasn't a problem any more.Originally Posted by FunkyT

Tagan is looking good... best model/supplier please?
Absolutly spanking! Got one humming in my machine, none too noisy, great looking finish, nice green LED glow and adjustable voltage rails.
the 480 watt TG480-U01 is supposed to be a good one - cheapest ive seen it for is from gladiator computers (http://www.gladiatorcomputers.com) for around £65 inc vat.Tagan is looking good... best model/supplier please?
Cheers Zed! May have to go and order myself one then - xmas prezzie for myself, i love xmas shopping...
I've got a Tagan 480W - no problems, and is generally a nice PSU - dedicated VGA molexes, comes with velcro bands to tidy up cables, compatible with PCI Express and BTX so it should last a while, etc.
"Well, there was your Uncle Tiberius who died wrapped in cabbage leaves but we assumed that was a freak accident."
Even an Antec 380 would be fine, but I'd go for a 480 if you want to have room for expansion and no worries about instability.
Note the problems Tom's Hardware are having with Tagans...
I've just ordered an Enermax Noisetaker 470W - hope I won't regret it!
