Is my PSU sufficient?

[imported_jediknight]

350W Elitech
28A @ 3.3V
35A @ 5V
16A @ 12V

To power this system:
Athlon64 3000+ w/stock cooling
Asus K8N mobo
1GB OCZ EL PC3200 2-3-2-6 1T
ATI Radeon 9800 Pro 256MB
2 optical drives
1 200 GB 7200 RPM WD hard drive
1 30GB 5400 RPM (if that) WD hard drive
Soundblaster Live! MP3 (possibly.. need to see if the build-in sound is sufficient)

This PSU has run my:
Celeron 900
?? Intel mobo
256MB Azenram PC100 SDRAM
64MB GeForce4 MX440SE (PCI)
2 optical drives
2 5400 RPM (if that) hard drives
SoundBlaster Live! MP3

fine (I only mention this b/c it's not a DOA POS)

I don't want to have to buy a new PSU unless necessary..

I did a little Google search for "Elitech 350W" and came up with a model number that pretty much pegs it as an L&C/Deer unit. Repeat after me... :frown: ~ewwwww! How'd this junk get in here?!

Look at what you're spending on the rest of your hardware. Another $60 for a good-quality power supply to run it all is money well-spent IMO. An Enermax, Antec, PC Power & Cooling or Fortron in the 400W+ range is what I'd pick if it were me, but first of all it should be quality. Hope that helps
