[athfbum]

Is this http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.asp?item=N82E16817104154 enough power for a rig that contains:
X1900XT
AMD Athlon 64 3800+ (single core)
ASUS M2N-E
2GB RAM
1 optical drive
1 floppy
1 hard drive
?

Nevermind.

I'll just go with an Antec Truepower II 550 watt

I'd say theres better choices then Antec... I used to use them a lot, but recently 2 out of three Neo 550HE's went south on me & that combined with the huge number of reported failures here on AT makes me strongly suggest you spend just a little more for a much better unit, like any one of these: (In ascending price order)

Antec NeoHE 500 beats that TPII 550

@akshayt-and in what way does the antec "beat" the TP550?
In what areas does it beat the 550?Wattage?Efficiency?
Out of the list captante has put out the silverstone strider would be the best buy.

NeoHE 500 offers a continous supply of 38A at 50C.

The TPII ratings are at 25C.

TPII 530 = peak
Neo= continous

Neo= tri rail
TPII=dual

MOST OF ALL
Neo=seasonic oem
TPII=channel times or something and seasonic is any day better
