i got a prob im decinding to buy a pc following are the specs intel q9400 porcessr 2.6ghz (max power cnssmption 238w) asus pq5-se/r mothrboard xfx 9600gt (max power conssmption 277w) 250gb hard im planing to buy a cooler master 500w power plus psu my question is will 500w be enough to handle dis?? (238+277=515w????)
Your system will rarely use the 238W on CPU. I remember Intel CPUs have a 125W ceiling though... deltatux
You're joking right? That's power consumption for whole system from the wall. A 9600GT needs ~5A from +12V line. Just try to buy a good 500W PSU not a craptacular cheap one.
so guys hw about the cooler master 500w "power plus" psu?well i dnt hav much knowledge abt psu's well the gpu's max power consumption was found in a review well i dnt whether i hav been mistaken:bang:
geuss wat guys im the unlcuiest guy in the world the guy i gave mny to brinmg the pc parts hav 4gottn it damn i feel so angry
