PSU question

[SithSolo1]

Current PSU: Antec TruPower 380

Components for new rig:

Fx55
Mobo (onboard audio and ethernet)
2x 1gb sticks DDR
2x 250gb 7200 HDs(1 pata, 1 sata)
7900GTo
Dual-Layer DVD burner
3x 120mm fans

Yes, I do plan to overclock both the CPU and the Video card.

What are the PSU's specs?

You'll definitely need more power than even the newer TP 380 can supply, even if running both the FX-55 & the 7900GTO at stock speeds. You'll need even more for overclocking both.

Check Howard's

Need help picking a PSU.

You can find a recommended 500W PSU or better.

Here are the specs.

I used that PSU calculator w/ OC'd FX55(@ 3ghz, 1.5v estimated) and OC'd GTX. At max load it said I would need 356watts but I don't know if I had all the settings right.

*edit* Well I did the little claculation thingy and found out I'd need 27a on the +12 rail and mine maxes out at 24a.
