Is the Power Supply enough ?

[gryfon]

ok guys, this is my rig

XP 1600+ (Palom) @ 1.5V
Shuttle AK35GTR v1.2
1x256MB Apacer PC2100
1x256MB Generic DDR PC2700 (hynix chip)
XFX Geforce 5900 SE @ stock
SB Audigy2 ZS Platinum Card + Platinum internal drive
Integral internal 56K modem
D-Link DFE-538TX Ethernet 10/100
Maxtor 60GB 7200 pata
Seagate 7200.7 120GB 8 MB cache pata
Asus 52X CDROM
Liteon 48x12x48 CDRW
Pioneer DVD-106
Enermax EG465P-VE 460W

is the power supply enough to hold all these equipment ? i got some stability issue running 3dmark03 (the 3.13 i believe, i don't upgrade to 340 yet, on 56K), and some pause(about 4-10) sec in game such as UnrealII, max payne 2 (on the middle not while loading, also hd led doesn't appear to be reading anything from disk), is it *definitely* or *maybe* that the ps is powerful enough ?

thanks

That's more than plenty I would say. Unless you have more than a couple hard drives, 300-350 is probably plenty.

no i don't have more than 2 HD. The reason i'm asking this is b'coz

http://www.jscustompcs.com/power_supply/

says that my rig seems to get around 430W, i don't know if the site is trustable. Also my m/b hardware monitor :
+12 V line around 12.22
-12V -12.45
-5V 5.20

also test the voltage with *cheap digital multimeter +12V : +around 12.38

don't have good multimeter to confirm this though

else is pretty normal

is it alright ?

thanks

According to that site my rig should be Horribly Crashing and/or Burning at the moment, because I'm short about 120W.

I stand by my "300W is enough for anyone*"

- M4H

* Unless you run a huge RAID array or something wack like that.
