Need help with PSU for my venice rig

[slayek]

Right now I am using an Antec 350W Smartpower PSU with the voltage/amp rating as below,
(+5/ 35A, +12/21A, +3.3/28A, -5/0.5A, -12/0.8A, +5 SB/2A).
If I total them down to wattage it comes down to more than 450 watts. I will be running 2 hdd, 2DVD-RW, 2 sticks of RAM, 3 PCI card and one 6600GT. Mobo is A8V delux and proc is AMD 3000+ venice.
Just wondering if I can run my system stable (without any OC) with my current PSU or I have to buy a new one?
TIA.

That Antec 350W is more than enough for your system. No need to upgrade it.

it should work unless you got money to spend. i'm running alot more stuff on a antec tp2 380watt.

You will need a stronger PSU imo...it's like a Camry on a 4-cylinder engine. It's alright in power but you are close to the edge.

Same here. I also have the A8V Deluxe with the 3000+ Venice and I thought I was fine with a 380W PSU. But since I am OC'ing, I just upgraded to an Enermax 475W Noisetaker PSU. I don't got much, 9800 Pro, 1 HD, 2xRAM, 1 DVD-R, but since I don't even want to be borderline, I just went for it. I think you are close to borderline but will survive.

Thanks folks for the replies. Got a 450W monster from SVC.
