Upgrading my system soon, going to be pretty dang fast, but I want to keep it as quiet as possible. I need to determine which PSU I should get, or if maybe my existing S-12 430 will work. How much power will this need? I'd prefer not spending a fortune, but I will if I have to.
Conroe E6600 running as fast as I can make it go with a Scyth Ninja and one orange yate loon (3.0+ghz hopefully)
2GB DDR2 As fast as it'll go.
Intel D975XBX (*** Requires some 8-pin connector from PSU??***)
2x 7900GT 256mb vmod+OC to equal or surpass GTX core, but half the ram of a gtx - both of these with zalman vf900cu heatsinks.
1x 74GB Raptor
2x Samsung SP1614C (160gb spinpoint, older model) label says: 0.5A 12V / 0.7A 5V - does that mean 2((0.5x12)+(0.7x5))= 19W total?
1x CDRW / DVD-reader
Sound Blaster Audigy 2 value.
I think that's it. It'll go in my P180. Case fans will be 1-3 orange yate-loons at up to 12v.
Building new high end system, need quiet psu
