You'll need an atx power supply of at least 300 watts, preferably amd approved. You can find them as low as $25-30. I recommend sparkle, enermax, or antec. I used a sparkle 235 watt on my 1700 xp, and it worked fine, but the 5v rail was an amazing 4.95 and the 12v rail was 11.93, unusual for such a low power unit.

well, the power suply that i've refered is a 300W one. It says AMD and INTEL approved. It says that gets 25A at +5, 15A at +3,3.
I've listen in some posts that sometimes this is not good. What do you say?
