PCI-E Ready Power Supply

[vsong]

I was wondering what a good PCI-E ready power supply would be? What price range i should be looking to spend and how much watts should i get. If anyone could point in me in the right direction that would be awesome.

I plan on getting:

X2 3800
Msi K9N4
2GB Mem
Samsung sata 200gb hd
Msi 8800gts 320mb
lite on dvd burner

The power supply that comes with the case is only 350w, so i dont think that is enough. But if it is great!

Any help would be greatly apperciated.

I planned on doing a budget system but then i said F IT lol.

This one would be plenty for that setup: Enhance 5150G, and it's not expensive, which is always nice. It's also a very reliable brand.

Show us the label on your current PSU. And in the meanwhile, take a look at the ones linked in my sig - they aren't rated much higher than yours for total power, but the available is apportioned properly for modern systems and they are made better than most you can get for the same money. Not to mention the features that weren't commonly available for under $100. until recently.

I bought the Enhance 5150GH for my build and I love it. It looks like the GH model offers a couple more SATA connectors and is rated for "quiet". Also, I don't see that they advertise 80+ efficiency for the G model.

So for a few extra bucks, the GH might be a better option. 🙂
