PSU Recommendations

[pdaunt]

8800 GTS/640
Intel E6750
EVGA nForce 680i sli motherboard
Corsair 4x1 GB Ram DDR2 800
250GB 7200 RPM HDD
1 DVD-RW
AVerMedia HD TV tuner
Sound Blaster X-Fi XtremeGamer
Rosewill 92mm 2 Ball CPU Cooler

I would also like to have the ability to add another video card for sli in the future, so make that two 8800 GTS /640 and the ability to OC comfortably.

Thank You

The Cosair 520HX is probably one of the top PSU's out right now. It is also not too expensive, around 80-90 dollars.

While a thread like this one is still up...

Will a Corsair 450VX power this machine?

Gigabyte P35-DS3R
Sapphire Radeon HD 2600XT 256mb
Intel C2D E6750
G.Skill 2GB DDR2-800 RAM
320GB Seagate SATA 16mb cache HDD
Samsung Lightscribe SATA DVD Burner optical drive

I just wasn't sure if those items would soak up the 450watts of power that PSU has to offer. I know the Amps are very important but will the 450VX power that system while being stable? There will be no overclocking and very little gaming so this computer will not get much stress.

Thanks in advance.

A corsair 450vx will power that rig JimiP, without a problem.

As for the OP, if you want to SLI, you gotta fork out some more money. I dun like it myself, but in another thread, for dual gtx's though, jonnyguru recommends a 700-750w PSU for sli-ed 8800's. So that be a enermax noisetaker 700w, or a pc&p qaud 750w. There's more options I guess, just those two I know on the top of my head. Corsair 620hx might be able to do it btw, with 50a I see no reason it couldn't, but what's 50$ more when you can buy two 8800gts 640mb cards ^^
