DFI Ultra-D

I read a review that says this motherboard uses a lot of power. What does that mean for a motherboard? Is it the NF4 chipset or something, and do I need a bigger psu than 500W? Thanks.

I did one build with an Ultra-D where I started with a 380watt Seasonic and the board wouldn't start at all. I moved up to a Antec 550Watt PSU and I had no problems.

Check out DFI Street, the official DFI forums for more specific info. There are plenty of people on those boards with lots of experience and detailed info on DFI motherboards.
