Hi all,
I'm about to purchase a dual motherboard and I can't understand what effect it requires form the CPU.
The motherboard in question is ASUS A7M266-D AMD762 and the spec can be found here:
http://www.awcl.co.nz/specification/1023/27/0ASID=6dcd1156401e606dc71490c20e867757/item1023.htm
The text says the following:
ATX Form-factor and Minimum 400W ATX 2.03 Power Supply
The minimum requirement for full-power loading is a 400 Watt ATX 12V power supply; minimum requirement for +5V/3.3V is 180 Watts; +12 Volts requires 15 Amps; 5VSB requires 1 Amp. Also Ensure that the ATX power supply can put out at least 10mA on the +5 Volt standby lead (+5vsb). You may experience difficuly powering ON the system if the power supply cannot support the load. For Wake-On-LAN support, your ATX power supply must supply at least 720mA for +5VSB.
What effect should the PSU have? I will it with two CPU's, two dics and two cdrom drives; will 340W be enough?
cheers,
Frans
