This gonna be enough power?..

WheaT · May 13, 2007

Ok, so here is the setup i have on the way. I currently have two power supplies to choose from and i am looking for some opinions.

C2D E6600 2.4G
Crucial Ballistix Tracer 2GB (2 X 1GB) PC2-8000 1000MHz
ABIT AB9 QUADGT P965 775
Seagate 320GB HD
eVGA 7900gt
2 x 74GB Raptor drives
An optical drive
3 x 120 Case fans
And a WD 250 Mybook External drive

I have an OCZ Powerstream 520w and a Powerstream 600w

I might be jumping to a 8800gts in the next month or so as well.

Which PSU will be the better choice if either will be able to work.

Any ideas?

Thanks for your replies!

check this site.

You can program in what you have and it will calculate what power supply you should need.

Nice, thanks

I'd use the PS520... the 600W never impressed me.

What about Enermax Liberty / Infiniti?

I'd go with the 520.

ocz520 will give you more then enough power even if you go to gtx or ultra. i know, i tried

Do you have other options?

WheaT · May 14, 2007

These are the two PSU's i have on hand. I dont want to spend money on another one if i dont have to. I figured the 520 would be the better choice because of its single rail instead of two. But thats why there are these two options.

I would go with what Wolf said and pick the 520W over the 600W. Too many dead 600W units for my liking.
