    Any 300W or better would be fine - it's an older BX-chipset board, so power requirements weren't so hefty back then. If you're gonna run dual P3's I would recommend at least 400w

    nah its only a dual p2 system....cuz i already have the chips by my side...but they are in two different cases as of now
    Does anyone know where i could buy a HSF for the p2? I currently only have heatsinks on both of them because thats all it came with (damn u dell...damn u to hell)

    They'll be fine.. Mount an exhaust fan in the case in front of the two passive sinks, and they'll stay cool enough. P2/450s don't get so hot :)

    hmm, I had a Pentium h/s laying in my parts bin somewhere, but that probably won't do you any good, lol You really don't need a fan probably, like passive heatsink's should be fine.

    why on earth do you care about the temps in your P2? as long as it's stable; they only put out around 20~25 watts of heat MAX. (hence why they have passive heatsinks)
    It's not like cooling a new-age system man.. back in the day they used to have an intake and use the power supply fan :eek:
