It's new system time and I'm going big on this one.
Core 2 E6600, 2GB OCZ Platinum ram, Asus P5B and either the eVGA or BFG 8800GTX video card. I'm keeping my existing 36gb raptor, my 300gb seagate sata and my nec 3520 dvd burner. I'll be using the onboard nic and sound.
eVGA recommends a minimum of 450w psu with 28amps on the 12 volt rail, and BFG wants a 450w psu with 30 amps on the 12 volt.
I'm stuck on power supply.
So far I've looked at:
OCZ GameXStream 600W (4x12 volt rails @ 18a each)
Thermaltake Toughpower 600W (4x12 volt rails @ 18a each)
Zalman ZM600-HP 600W (4x12 volt rails @16a each)
They're all fairly close in price, and all seem to provide enough power.
Which one?
