So you're saying spend $40~ on the case [or any case ] and buy a separate power supply made by theramtake with 24 pin connector? If so, can you suggest a box and which power supply would be any good? thanks Antec Sonata II. Lovely case, plenty of reliable power. |

ok jan, thanks for the heads up.

Folks here are trying to enlighten you to the importance of a good PS. You have potentially good system in the works but you are shortchanging in the wrong area at this point. A decent PS will run you $40 minimum initially. I've had good results with two of these Thermaltakes below for $30 after the $10 rebate. http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16817153023 |

Only with media in place. Everything doesn't go worst case at the same time, and your max might be ~13.2A with a game CD in the drive while you are gaming. Getting pretty close to the Codegen's 14A output on +12V. I would select a power supply, with enough current for a couple more disk drives. (If you get an ATX 2.0+ power supply, that has 12V1 and 12V2 outputs, the 12V2 is for the processor alone, and the 12V1 powers everything else.) http://www.formfactors.org/developer...public_br2.pdf Paul |

I see now where I need to re-think the 'going cheap' idea. |
