Will a 300w ps be sufficient enough for this setup ...

[mtkversion]

Hey everyone, I've read around the forums for a while and finally decided to register.

I currently have the mobo / cpu / 1 - 40 gig ibm drive / crucial ddr ram on order with newegg and the parts should arrive sometime this week. the other parts will be salvaged from my current computer.

Epox 8KHA+
AMD Athlon 1700
256 Crucial PC2100 DDR
32MB GeForce2 MX
SB Live 5.1
1 - 30 gig Western Digital 7200/100
2 - 40 gig IBM 7200/100 ( 1 still on order )
D-Link 10/100
16x10x40 LiteOn CDRW
4X Samsung DVD
w2k pro OS
-Housed in an Antec SX1030b

Will the Antec ps be enough or should I replace it for a 350/400w ps just to be safe.

The sound and video card will soon be replaced and another stick of ram will be thrown in.

Thanks for any help ...

I think it should be powerful enough. You can try it out first. If it doesn't work, then buy the 350/400w powersupply.

The Antec PP303x should do just fine. 🙂

The 300W PSU will be fine until you add more drives. More than four drives I'd upgrade your PSU.

it will be fine

Yes, of course, if it has 300 real Watts, no problem.
