I'm about to upgrade to:
Asus A7V-333 viaKT333 + USB2 + ATA133
AMD *Retail* Athlon XP 2100+ (1.73 GHz) with AMD H/S/F 3 Yrs Warranty
256mb PC2700 DDR (major brand)
80Gb Western Digital (WD800JB) ATA-100 (7200rpm, 8MB Cache, 8.5ms) Quiet Drive Technology 3Yr
PNY GeForce 4 Ti4200 (64mb)
As I'm on a seriously tight budget, I'm planing on running it on a:
400W *PFC* Power Supply AMD & P4 Ready
Now this is a cheap supply (£25)...is it really worth spending more to get a good PSU? I have a few alternatives:
Silent 360W ATX PSU - Thermaltake - £37.59 (dabs)
350W CWT Quiet Dual Fan Version AMD/P4 Approved Active Fan Control Active PFC - £31.72 (scan.co.uk)
350W Enermax EG365AX-G-FMA PSU with Manual Fan Control/Temp Control 2Yr - £46.71 (scan.co.uk)
420W HiperPower Quiet Dual Fan (Active Fan Control) Active PFC - £42.30 (scan)
350W HiperPower PSU Quiet Single Fan Active PFC - £25.85 (scan)
Which should I go for? (preferably the cheapest one)
