I've had no issues with this whatsoever up to this point:

PSU Label

Currently running:
Motherboard: ASRock 939Dual-Sata2
CPU: Opteron 175
Ram: 2gb Corsair ValueSelect
HDD1: 80GB PATA drive
HDD2: 160GB PATA drive
Optical: DVD Burner
Vid Card: EVGA 6800GS pci-express
Sound Card: Soundblaster Live!
4 80mm Case fans

I'm ordering a Radeon HD 3870 and want to make sure this thing will get me through.

(It's an Athena Power 500w psu in case it matters)

Topower build with a single 28A +12V rail.

More than enough if you're not going to do Crossfire.
