Need advice about power supply


Recommended Posts

Sometime this week I'll be getting an Athlon XP 1800+ and some more 256mb pc2001 ram. I have not had any problems with my current power supply but, I wanted to know if my power supply was enough for this much ram and this cpu?

300W

+3.3V = 20A

+5V = 30A

+12V = 10A

+5VSB = 2A

-5V = 0.5A

-12V = 0.8A

AMDs are power hungry. That would do for an Intel but I would reccomend getting a 350 or a 450. Its going to get loud but your PC will thank you.

PS's arent that expensive either.
