with all the power hungry components a 300 watt psu would be in your best interest ;D

i know it would be, but i'm looking for a yes it's nessecary or no right now.
i need to find 199+tax for geforce2, and being 15, that aint easy. so i need to get a 300watter, what should i do wiht my brand new 250 watter that came with the case?? CAN i run it? thats the main question,...

a power shortage will make the system unstable but should not hurt any thing ...give it a whirl...... ;D

when i bought my box at the local computer store i upgraded to 300 watts for 20 bucks how much was the upgrade for your`s

[ExtremeOC]

i paid 50 for my case and power (reg 60, these guys do sun/mon sales) +tax. a 300 watter is like 45 bucks. i cant really afford that. i can run 750 at 250w without too many probs, but i cant really kick it to a gig. this'll be the bomb when i finish. getting 256megs SDRAM when i get my job in 2 weeks.

i have a ANTEC 300 watter and i beleave its holding me back from the 1400 mark with this blue core 950

im going 2 300 watter tied together so my baosrd has about 600 watts to run on

Well my Duron ran for a while quite nicely @1008mhz with only 235 psu...
Unless you are going to turn your computer into Air tunnel (with fans) I suggest you give the 250W psu a try .
