Should I buy an OCZ Powerstream or is this adequate?

I wouldn't use it. 180W max on the two 12V rails combined... mmm... not what I'd use in a gaming system. And it's not a brand I'd have confidence in its quality level, either.

Ok thanks for the fast reply <3. Im gonna be running an Opty 170 and a 7900GTX and I dont mind buying a new psu.

Your video card alone can pull 80W at its end of the supply chain under full load, and add some overhead to that. http://www.xbitlabs.com/articles/video/display/geforce7900gtx_6.html Maybe ~100W effectively from the PSU's viewpoint? Yeah, I'd pair that rig up with something you can have confidence in.

Can you suggest something very reliable and high-quality thanks so much for the replts.

I could, but it will attract brand-specific PSU fanboys galore if I do :evil: What's your $$$ budget for the PSU?

I'm getting that it is an MGE supply, is this correct? Between that and the uninspiring 12 V ratings, I'd say trash it.

I like these supplies. The OCZ Powerstream is good if that floats your boat. If you want a blanket recommendation: Fortron, Seasonic, Xclio.

A Zippy 460w is my preferred brand and model. But Fortron, Seasonic, PC&C, among others are good choices.

 

[EffeX]

hmm ok thanks.... Budget preferably like 100$-150$. Thanks again u guys are awesome.
EDIT: I really like that seasonic. Thanks , I have one last question. Are Vantec Stealth fans good? Im lookin for 3 high cfm low noise fans.

it would probably destroy itself if it won't already have a chance to blow the rest of your components away..

definetly sounds like you might wanna upgrade
