Hello

I want to upgrade to:
Sempron64 2800+ @ 2.2 - 2.4GHz
1GB Ram \ nForce4 mobo
Geforce6800GS

I am really running out of budget and I can save 85$ in case not buying Forton AX400 PSU , great \ cheap PSU .
85$ the PSU price + shipping to my country .

So , do you think no-name cheap 450W 24-Pin single rail 12v+:18A , can handle this setup for a little while until I can afford more $$$ to buy new one ?
I know it's not enough , but I wish to see some experience with cheap \ bad PSU for mid-end systems .

I was running my Sempy @ 2.3 GHz on an old HP Pavilion 200W PSU pull for a little while before getting this ridiculous Antec.

I think he's asking if he can delay his purchase of a 400w Fortron PSU and stick it out with some 24-pin no-name PSU. In other words, he specificaly does not have that PSU.

Regardless, I think most no-name 400w PSUs would handle that setup with no more problems than they are prone to already. Also, a 24-pin PSU is likely a better no-name PSU.
