Antec TruePower II 500 Watt PSU

[Just4Ever]

Just wondering if this will be adequate for my new system:

E6600 (overclocked to 3.6 GHz)
ASUS P5W DH Deluxe
A-DATA Vitesta DDR2-533 (overclock to DDR2-800)
eVGA 7900 GT voltmodded and oced to 600 core 850 memory
Scythe Ninja Plus for E6600
Zalman VF900-CU for 7900GT
Artic Silver 5 thermal compound

Can the antec handle all this in an Antec P180B case?
All input is welcomed.

Thanks.

EDIT: Link to the PSU

I hope so. 500 watt is a ton.

Yeah thanks for the link. I have already used that in a whole bunch of configurations but it says that the total wattage isn't as important as the amperage through the 12V rails. The Antec TruePower II 550W is rated at 19A for each 12V rail which seems decent. However, does anyone know how reliable this thing is going to be? Anyone heard any horror stories about the caps on it?

I have a TPII 550w pushing an X2 4200+ with a 7800GT, 6 hard drives, and 2 optical drives all inside a P180.

I think you'll be fine.

I have a 550watt TP2 pushing my dual dual core 265's below....According to that article I need 494watts...I am on the cusp...

My other dual dual core 270 rig not OC'd has a 600watt PSU but has only a need for 452 watts according to the article... I amy swap...


I have a 600watt OCZ powerstream waiting for my Core 2 Duo system which wil have Raid setup and be OC'd, but not much more....It likely will need less then all

Why Antec? I recommend seasonic.. high end jap caps..way underrated 80% effcient and silent.

i am getting a TPII 550. from the reviews on newegg it seems enought for an X2 and a x1900xtx.

thats it, ignore the Elite guy right above ya

i'm not an antec basher (see my rig in sig) but if you think seasonic is too pricey, get an enhance 0560g or 5150gh from ewiz.
