I am upgrading my computer and I currently have a Thermaltake 480 TWV. I will be running the following set up:

8192MB PC6400 DDR2 800MHz Memory (4 x 2048MB)

EVGA nforce 780i SLI Motherboard - A1 Version, NVIDIA nForce 780i SLI, Socket 775

Intel Core 2 Duo E8400 Processor

EVGA GeForce 9600 GT Video Card - 1GB

do you think that will work or do I need more power?? I wanted to give it a shot but I am running low on cash:P

Quarrel,

That's a fairly old unit. How long have you had it and can you post a photo of the label? On paper, you should have plenty if it's in good condition depending on its specs.
