HELP!!!! I don't know much about building computers and I desperately need some advice. I currently made my computer already, but I need to see if everything works out.
:mad:
Antec 900 Case
Asus p5Kc
intel core 2 duo 2.33 ghz
pny 2 gb ddr2
antec 430w earthwatts power supply

( geforce 8800 gts )

Would everything work? IM afraid my power supply won't run the 8800 gts graphics card. Can someone be a life saver plz?? :confused:

:(

That PSU will work fine, but you're running it awfully close to the line if you want any upgrade potential. I usually recommend 450W minimum these days in general to account for a plethora of drives and bus-powered peripherals, as well as upgrades to RAM and expansion cards. If you've got no more than 3 drives installed in the system, that PSU is fine. But if you ever want to upgrade any components...
