is this PSU socket 939 compatible?

[mitchie]

I have an 350W Antec SmartPower PSU that I'm using in a P4 Northwood system. Can this same PSU power a socket 939 based mobo?

Thanks!

Your PSU has a 20pin plug, the 939 MB will most likly have a 24pin jack.

There is a stickied thread at the top of the General Hardware Forum, all will be explained
in it.

Depends if you use a video card that pulls lots of watts or not.

You have to Know the power requirements of the CPU/Video card, etc.

I would be reluctant to use a 350watt power supply on one of these newer motherboards. Especially if it may be used for SLI or Dual Core Processors.

Some boards are still 20-pin (like mine) but I would not use a 350W PSU...

Antec makes great PSU's... What hardware is it going to be feeding? Normally you should be fine with up to mid-end hardware...

EDIT: Compatible it is, it's more a matter of powerful enough actually...
