As you can see I have Chieftec 360w. I am planing bigger overclock so I will need stronger psu. Tell me is PSU LC Power LC6550 550w good choise or my Chieftec 360w could do the job? Thanks in advance.

For the best bang for buck PSU, I would go for the Antec TruePower II 550watt IMO.

Can we have all the current amps for your current psu? It would be best to go for a more well known brand, but seeing as you live in serbia it may be difficult to get hold of them. Try any of these manufacturors:
Antec
FSP
Enermax
Hiper
OCZ

There are more aswell but those are what spring to mind

My current psu: Chieftec HPC-360-202 DF ATX 12V 2.0
AC input: 115V 8A; 230V 5A; 50-60Hz
MAX LOAD: 360W
DC output:
220W: +5V 35A; +3.3V 28A
204W: +12V1 15A; +12V2 17A
1.5W: -5V 0.3A
9.6W: -12V 0.8A
10W: +5VSB 2A

We have various brands in Serbia but I am asking for LCP, is it good or not?
And I have ups Mustek 600VA 360W, shoul I get new one or keep this one?

I havent heard of it so I doubt it really. It is always best to stay with a well known brand. What brands can you get?

Almost any I want Cooler master, Chieftec, Enermax tec. So you thin it is essential to get better psu (more w)?
ps:isn't a topic but one question, you have amd x2 3800+
I am thinking to get that cpu, dfi lan party s939 mb and two sata2 hdd, manly s939 because I have 2Gb Geil ddr and I am not very thril with ddr2, so the question is shoul i buy s939 or wait a little bit more and buy something else? With selling of my cpu, mb and hdd + 350eur = new parts, what do you think?

On topic question: It is essential to get a powerful psu. The psu is often the most overlooked part of a build and one of the most important. If you have a bad psu it risks damaging your other parts and also hinders your overclock, leaving an unstable system.

Off topic question: I would say that 2gb of ram is an overkill in your system. You need to upgrade pretty much everything else for it to make a (big) difference. I would wait a little untill conroe is cheeper and more readilly available and go for that, or if you want to go the amd route then get AM2, they are very cheep atm.

Tnx

gvlada

And what about ups Mustek 600va 360w, if I get more powerful psu some 550w shoul I get more powerful ups or not?

Niko-Time

Im not sure what you mean.... I would get the one that jester suggested, that seems to be one of the best "bang for your buck". Or are there any deals on any well known brands that you know of? If there are post them here and we will tell you if you should get it.
