Power Supply Recommendations

Sn0wMan · 05-September-07, 07:35 PM

I am looking for a power supply in the $50 range. It has to have 24 pins but 20 + 4 is nice too. Preferably black, and around the 500 watt range or so.

So far I was thinking of this Thermaltake or this Silverstone, but honestly I have no clue. It is going to power a DFI NF4 board, probably not much overclock, a 3500+ AMD, a dvd burner, and a couple hard drives.

Any suggestions would be great!! Thanks in advance!

SLI?

PCIe connector?

For 50$ youll get a little more than a year.. .
Unless you can up it to 90$ shipped, for a New gameXtreme (PM me about that)

I'm looking non the less.

No, SLI and PCIe are not needed. It is going to act as a server and basically just set there.

What do you mean about a little more than a year? As for the $90 one, I wish I could but the budget is tight, so I gotta stick with the $50 range. Thanks for the offer tho.

just about all those -50$ range PSU's are not the most stable (i wouldn't trust most of them with my PC not evena borg) and last around a year or so.

But if 100$ is critical, go for cheapest w/$ really. just not POWMAX.

Thanks for the help bro. +rep for ya.

Anyone else have any suggestions? How about which of the two PSUs above is the best one? I am leaning toward the Silverstone.
