Will my psu be enough?

[dawnbug]

I just bought some new components and am wondering if I'm going to be safe with my Enermax 350 watt.

When everything's in, I'll have:

athlon 2100+ @ 2700+ (1.75 vcore)
thermaltake scf2 on an SLK-800
512mb pc2700
3 optical drives
4 hard drives
radeon 9500 pro
4 case fans
5.25 inch 3 fan bay
2 uv cold cathodes
2 uv case fan cathodes
ata133 controller card
turtle beach santa cruz
floppy

The new components are two hard drives and the two case fan cathodes. I run SETI 24 hours a day and haven't had a problem yet, but I'm wondering if I'm going to be pushing my luck if I add this new stuff.

Thanks

Those Enermax 350's are monsters. I'd rather have one of them than an Antec 380, but that has a lot to do with my P4 vs AMD system. You should be fine. If you have a problem, I'd think you'd see it on start up (when everything is powering up). Keep an eye on your voltages, and if any of the rails are OOS or fluctuate too much, you can infer it's a load. On an upgrade, I'd opt for an Antec 480 just to be safe .

Should be fine there. I run a XP2000, 1GB 2700 DDR, 3 hard drives, burner, dvdrom, floppy, zip 4 80mm case fans, geforce 4 4200, santa cruz, 3 cold cathods, and a ys tech variable speed fan on my heatsink off my enermax 350.

Thanks guys.

I think if I do run into problems, I'm going to get a fortron source psu. I've got a 300 watt in another computer I run, and I've been very impressed by it's quality vs price. Maybe a 400 or 460 would suit the needs of my main computer better. I guess I'll see if I need it though when I actually find the time to burn about 100 cds before reformatting my current drives and setting everything up together.

Another solution is if you have an old AT PSU laying around, they work great to add and seperate power for lights and fans.
