    Do you think the OCZ 600w will work? I got it because you said atleast 18A is a good 12V. It has 4 12v rails also. It has 18A on 4 12V

    Ok thanks, pheww. I was hoping it would be alright. And sorry for being so hardheaded about the PSU I originally wanted to buy. I will admit you're right quality does matter. :thumbup:

    True. But I have been running a CM 650Watt Bronze Certified PSU for about 4 years now and its going strong so a Silver PLUS is more than enough

    They are on two different rails, I have a similar PSU as the one the OP just bought, it works just fine, stop scaring him lol.

    Also, that calculation is based on an old GPU for performance he's not asking for. His rig build is quite basic and won't hit over 200W.
