Need a Quick Answer!!!

[SexEPid]

Hey Everyone!
I am not the smartest human being on the earth, and it will show in the next question.

There are two computer stores that are 60 miles away from me.
I searched their web site and found that they only advertise their cases/power supplies or just their power supplies as "Pentium 4 Ready"
Now, my AthlonXP will be in tomorrow...I am wondering if these power supplies/cases will work with my Athlon, or do I have to buy an "Athlon XP ready" case/power supply?

Thanks in advance!
Much love.

Ok, that site officialy sucks. There are no wattage ratings besides the entire PSU. Bleh. Not even any pictures to figure it out.

This is what you have to do... Call up the company. Ask them what the 3.3v and 5v ratings are. Take these 2 numbers and add them together. If they add up to 160watts or more, then you should be just fine.

Those prices are not exactly... um.... great. Have you tried Newegg?

You have PM.
