Power supply for this setup

[heinz256]

AMD athlon X2 4600+ (am2)
Asus m2n32-sli deluxe
ATI x1900xtx
OCZ 2GB ddr2 800/pc2-6400 ram
Thermaltake Tsunami case
DVD burner
2 320 gb harddrives

Do you guys think the powerstream will be able to handle it or should I pick the 600W gamexstream to be on the safe side ? Also, will either of these PSU's fit alright into the case with no problems? Thanks.

i'd go for the 600watt gamex. but thats only between those 2 choices, have u considered the FSP 600 or 700watt. or seasonic 600? or enermax liberty? i'd take any of those over OCz power suppies

For a single video card, a 600W PSU is silly. 500W is plenty. I'd prefer a 480W Seasonic personally.

Between the two, the 520ADJSLI for sure.

But why does it HAVE TO BE an OCZ?

 

[heinz256]

Well im stuck here in Canada and prefer to buy locally and the store where im getting my parts from only have OCZ , Antec, or Enermax to choose from. The 520W is 10 bucks more expensive than the 600W. Anyone know why this is?? They also sell the Enermax Liberty ELT500AWT. Is that a better option than the OCZ's?

I would go with the Liberty.

I would have to say it is.

Planning crossfire in the future? If not, my recommendations:

The gamerx is just a rebadged FSP epsilon.
