There will be nothing to watch.... I have 2 computers that have been running on $20 PSUs for over a year now without any problems. I'll most likely get the FSP though.

Ok, if 400w is good enough for an 8800 than that's enough upgrade wiggle room for me.

Well I'm not much of a gamer so I don't think I'll be upgrading much. Maybe a couple more gigs of RAM in a couple years. My current system has a GeForce Ti 4400, 1st line of P4 2.0ghz, 1gb of RAM, 40gb HD. It's from like 2002, bought it for $1,500, lol. EDIT: Do you think the 400w or 500w...

I calculated a total difference of $10 between 400w and 500w. I don't know if it's worth it because I think 400w is more than enough for my system....Thoughts?

...I'm just waiting for one of those Paypal shipping promo codes (or similar) before I order. I don't want to pay $40 for shipping.

Why would you go for the Antec 380w over the 430w?

I mean that model of RAM isn't on the list.

I would much rather buy everything from Newegg and have it all come at the same time in one box....If I went through Buy.com for the PSU I'd just get this and use google checkout to make it $50. http://www.buy.com/prod/antec-...loc/101/203477215.html or...

I can't find the Corsair RAM on that list.

So under $50 FSP is the best PSU out there?

I had a similar thread comparing a bunch of companies and we narrowed it down to Patriot. Now there's a Corsair Kit on sale for $60 after promo code and rebate. Which would you guys choose? http://www.newegg.com/Product/...x?Item=N82E16820145177 or...

Ok, then FSP wins, if you guys wouldn't have said anything I wouldv'e gotten the Thermaltake. BTW, fsp is $40, not $47.80. EDIT: Oh, you were giving prices with shipping... I wasn't counting shipping because it gets calculated differently when you have a shopping cart full of stuff. Besides...

Earlier someone said I don't need this much power. Why should I get the 650 instead of the 500 then? What about dazed and confused's options, any of those good?

bump

Most of the stuff you guys linked is about double what I want to pay.... $80 is not a budget PSU and I don't want to pay 1/4 of my budget on it. Why is it that the $50 PSU's still maintain 4-5 star ratings if they suck so badly? My parent's computers are running on $20 CoolMax PSU's with no...
