PSU Query

E3000

Member
Hey guys,

I am looking to build a new system with the following spec:
Intel i7-920
ASUS P6T Deluxe V2
Gigabyte GTX 260 OC
1x500GB HDD
2x1TB HDD
Triple Chanel DDR3

I'd just like to know what Power Supply you guys would recommend. Would 500W be enough? Do I need more? Do I need anything special for nVidia GFX cards/SLi? Any particular brand/recomendations?

I won't be using SLi at first but may decide to in the (distant) future ;-)

Thanks guys.
 
Corsair 550VX for $70 AR at newegg is a pretty good deal right now, for a great PSU with all the necessary connectors, but if you really think you want to go SLI later, a step up to the Antec Truepower New 750 might be warranted. It's $130 now but it's usually on sale + a rebate to put it at around 95-105
