    hi there techspot,

    i am beginning to learn more and more about hardwares, and i just want to know what power supply is compatible for a certain processor. Like for example, i have a pentium 3 800mhz processor, how many wattage does it take to power up such processor as P3??? does this processor has its limits when it come to power supply???

    hope i learn something new from your site... God Bless...

    A quality 350 to 450 watt supply is fine for most applications
