Do I need a new PS to overclock a PIII 700?

[Mattlock]

I am thinking of replacing my K6-3 400 with an ABIT BE6, PIII 700. My enlight case has a 250watt enlight PS. Will that PS allow me to overclock the PIII 700 or do I need a new more powerful one?

Trying to keep my $ investment down to a minimum.

Thanks,

Mattlock

that psu should be ok if it's a good quality one!

You should be covered if you have the ATX connector and the "AT" connector also. Some boards need it, others don't. You really don't have to worry about the 4 "Square" Power connectors until high Athlon and Pentium 4 boards.

250W Enlight is a good PSU...I'll agreed w/ bacillus.

The chipset and RAM will be the limiting factor. It may, or may not do 133. Hope so, cause I have run a 700 at 133 for over a year on a BF6.

Chipset is an ABIT BE6 (not the BE6-II) and Crucial PC133 CAS2. Any thoughts?
