hi,
does anyone know the minimum wattage that i can buy for a Duron 1000 in a micro-atx mobo. Most micro-atx cases come with 150W that i think is too little for a Duron. What u think?
thanks

Do you really need a micro-ATX case? You could get a regular ATX case, the mobo will fit fine and you won't have a power supply ceiling. If you do need a micro-ATX case then just buy a decent one without a power supply and buy it separately.

It all depends on what you put in your PC, also. If you have onboard video & sound, one CD-ROM drive, one hard drive, etc. then you may be able to get away with 200-250 Watts. But 300 Watts would be my minimum for a Duron 1000 system, just to be safe.
