Not sure whether to put it here or Cases.


Im wondering how good the 500W PSU's of which are supplied with the Artic Cooling Cases are good enough to run a C2D Set Up?

Looking at:

E6300/4300 Retail (will overclock on stock cooling)
2GB RAM
250GB HDD
X1950Pro/XT
Optical Drives
19" Monitor

Would the 500W Run comfortably the C2D at say 2.6ghz?

Just wondering as many people have said they would, and just wanting confirmation.

Ive heard they run Seasonic PSU's too..?
 
I'm using my stock cooler, and a 450W SmartPower PSU that came with my Antec Sonata II and I'm on 2.5GHz on my E6300 (check my sig :)) It probably will go more but tbh I haven't got the time to do it! So yeah it should be fine!

Good to hear!

Saves me around £100 too.
 
I don't think they use Seasonic PSUs any more, or at least they don't mention it on their website but going by the system they have tested the PSU with it should be more than capable if they are to be believed. :)
 
Theres a thread about this case in Case Central and apparently its been tested with dual GFX setups and it was pretty happy with it. Even comes with 2 PCI-E connectors.
