Chenming Model# AX-01 the PS in this thing any good??

[MrMiyagi]

I'm thinking bout getting this case for a semi-new build, but I'm wondering about the power supply. It's a Turbolink 420W. I'd be running a P4 2.4c with 1 gig of Corsair XMS PC3200 in dual on an IC7. I'd like to OC the proc to at least 3.0. Is this PS going to create a problem? Should I just keep my Antec 400W I currently have?

Thanks for any advice

i dont know man, i wouldnt trust a 2.4C/IC7 to anything but an antec/enermax/fortron/thermaltake/PC power and cooling/thermaltake

That case and PS run my server. The PS seems very stable; for awhile, I used it as my main/gaming rig with no problems. That said, if I was building a gaming system where I was going to be overclocking hard, I'd go with a brand name PS, such as Antec/Fortron/Enermax, et al.

The main Anandtech page has a PS roundup article that is very informative.

Thanks for the advice guys...I'll probably swap out the genereic for my current Antec 400w...and if that doesn't cut it i'll get a better PS.

Peace
