PSU, I know nothing of them, which one?

Dark_Angel · 28 Dec 2006 at 00:49

Ok, I know a little I lied

Seriously though, which is the best value for money. It will be powering:

8800 GTS
2 hard drives
1 DVD writter
several fans
X2 3800
Motherboard
1 light (cathode tube thingy)

I have no PCI cards or anything else, maybe I will add an extra hard drive eventually but thats about it.

What do people think? note, I dont wanna spend a fortune here

well i don't know if they are powerful enough but i just got corsair psu and it's very nice, very quiet too!

providing you aint going ti stick another 8800gts in your system for sli. then i would reccomend corsair 520 £70ish

i'm looking for one at the moment as well, the 8800gts page says:

"Finally 500W minimum for PSU and 600W+ is recommended."

i'll be getting a 580w hiper they are amazing:

Another vote for Corsair. I would stay away from hiper, just do a search on this forum and you will see why.
