POWER SUPPLY QUESTION

[Alex]

Im gonna get a new rig with all the usual stuff, but with 3 scsi hds... 2 in raid 0 and one just like not in raid...
im also gonna have an extra video cooler fan... will a 350W PS cut it for me or is ir worth it spending some extra cash and getting a 430W? thx

How much extra? i'd say probably get the 430W to be on the safe side if it's not too much, it's not a bad thing to have extra power.

my system at home was a tad too much for my 300W PSU and I only have 2 IDE hard drives. 3 SCSI beasts will no doubt draw more.

thats what i thought.... hmm 430 it is! thx!
