    Power Supply and a Hypothetical Situation

    Ok peeps, I've been wondering...

    With the XOxide ads plastered all over gotapex, I'm wondering what type of power is needed if you use a case that has:

    case lighting
    case fan (lets say, 3 case fans)
    + oh say....
    dvdrom drive
    cd burner
    1 HD
    a GeForce
    floppy drive
    NIC

    can you do it w/ only one PS???

    Re: Power Supply and a Hypothetical Situation

    With a 350W+ PSU, you could do that! I currently has 4 case fans, R7500, 2 HDs, CD-ROM, CD-RW, and some neons with a 420W PSU!

    Dell Studio 17 | Intel Core i7-720QM (1.6GHz) | 6GB DDR3 1066MHz | 1GHz ATI Mobility Radeon HD 4650

    Intel P4-C 3.0GHz | ECS 865PE-A | 3x512MB PC3200 | 128MB PNY GeForce 6600GT

    yeah, 350...most of those things don't use a lot of juice, but it does all add up quick.
