X-Qpack question

[kd2777]

Well I went to a LAN party the other day and after lugging my Lian-Li V2000 there (to show off my ecock) I decided to say Fvck that big case. Well I have a Q-PACK (Aspire) for a back up computer, and am thinking about taking some of my pieces from my main rig and making the small computer my good computer then selling the big one. If so I'm wondering if the stock 420 PSU that came with the Aspire will be big enough. Here would be the rig:

WinFast nf4 motherboard
4600+ x2 w/7000 Cu Zalman
7800GTx eVGA
2 GB RAM
Audigy2zs PRO
Raptor 74GB
160GB Other drive
DVD RW
Floppy/card reader

The specs on the stock PSU are:

3.3v 20A
5v 25A
12v 20A

420 max

TIA

those cases look ugly get a shuttle.

I think it will work, but would feel much safer with 26+ on the 12V line.

I already have the case and the motherboard.... no need to rebuy and if I am not sure if the 420 will do the job, I'm sure the shuttles 300 won't.

Get a lite-on (sony) DVD burner and take your psu from the lian-li over to the qpack or buy another psu. The shorter DVD burners allow you to use a full size atx power supply.

Edit: The shuttles 300 or 350 in the SN25P would more then power that system. I'm willing to bet the 250 from the ST20G5 would be enough to power it. Don't underestimate shuttles power supplies.

That is me too, it seems like it is just close enough, but not enough for the head room I usually like. The PSU in my current main rig is a 600watt Seasonic, so I usually go for overkill on the PSU.


thanks for the input.
