PSU advice for C2D rig
Hey,
__________________i am building a C2D rig, and i have almost all the components except the motherboard ( this weekend) and the PSU My rig: -e6300 (hopefully @ 3GHz) -Western Digital 320GB SATA2 Hdd -Connect3d x1300 256MB -3x512MB (cheapo RAM) DDR2 533 -Asus P5B or Gigabyte P965-DS3 <-- still can't choose On my current PC, the PSU is a 450W Touchmate (the only brand name PSU i could find in the country). Never had a problem with it, and managed to overclock my Radeon 9600 from 398/202 to 452/216  I phoned their store, and they told they had a 350W PSU for bout 10$ US. I would like to know if it is a viable option, and if not, what i need to find on the 12V rails (amps) so the PC can function, and hopefully OC nicely (nothing extreme, 2.4GHz to maybe 3GHz) Thx

Djibouti! 350 would probably be fine, I would go for 400 to be save so then you can get some super duper graphics later

I find that offensive!

More than a $10 PSU will give you. The PSU is something you do NOT want to go bargain-basement on. I'd recommend spending at least $50, probably more, on a good, reputable PSU.

I like headphones.

Are there any websites of shops who specialise in these sort of thing in your country? Or any companys worldwide which ship to you?
http://www.memory-configurator.com/index.html That website ships to you and they have a decent psu as well. http://www.memory-configurator.com/p...on_/index.html It says it is an EU version...I don't know what you have in Africa but it should work I recon.
