I'm building a new dual machine with SUPERMICRO "X6DA8-G2" E7525 mobo and Dual Nocona Xeons @ 3.6 and I'm a bit afraid to pick a wrong PSU. I got lost with PSU selections when new sockets and chipsets came out and need to confirm what PSU to pick.

Thanks.

The biggest thing that you have to look at when selecting a workstation class powers supply is for a 24-Pin main power connector and a 8-pin aux power connector. They are also listed as either EPS or SSI power supplies, if i recall correctly.

I'd go with a coolmax 400w 12cm single fan from newegg (about $45). It comes with a free adapter for your 24 pin supermicro.
