Will this PSU be enough?

(Click here to view the original thread with full colors/images)


Posted by: oderus1671

I am looking to buy an Antec Sonata case for a new system Im building. It comes with a 380 watt PSU, and I would like to know if it will be enough for the following...
ATI 9800 pro
Abit NF7-S mobo
2 case fans (120 mm)
1 hard drive, (adding one later on to use the SATA
and maybe RAID)
2 optical drives
Thanks for looking! Help would be much appreciated!

the power supply should be sufficient, as its an antec [it had better be an antec PS]. however, larger would be nice for upgrading at a later time.

Like she said.

Fine for that, but you'll need more later. Like a year or two.

Well, it still works, doesn't it? If it makes you feel any better, I'm running alot more than that on a 300w antec psu.

This isnt related to the question, but how do you put your homepage link under your sig? Thanks for the replies!

You'll have to use the url tags for that. Here's an example:

[url=http://www.yourwebsite.com]description[/url ]

Leave that space at the end out, that was just to stop it from turning into a link.
