Another vote for the corsair.

If you aren't fussed about the modular etc. I would go for the Antec, I rely upon them personally for 5 years now and they are solid. 550W model would be enough for very demanding system and good overclock

save yourself some money!

Hello,

With the Wattage, check this thread for the spec I'm looking at.

Another vote for Corsair and the 520W version should run that system without problems.

Hi there,

Based on your system spec I would suggest 500W-550W, this would be more than adequate and would allow you to do big overclocks with the Noctua too. I'd personally recommend the Antec Truepower Trio 550W. I have a very similar system powered by it. E6600, 2GB GeIL, Noctua NH-U12F.

What about the power required from the graphics card? ATI X1800XT

jaykay · 13 May 2007 at 11:19

A 1800xt doesnt much power a 500w would be suitable for your system

Corsair (made by Seasonic BTW)

520W's enough, unless planning to go (in the near future) quad core, SLi with 8800 GTX & several HDs

Get the Corsair over the Antec any day... much better PSU.
