Is this a good enough PSU to power the 7800gtx well?

Ultra 600 watt ATX Power Supply

Max Output Current
+5v | +3.3v | +12v | -5v | -12v | +5VSB
28A | 28A | 29A | 0.6A | 0.6A | 2A

Total Output Power
600W (Full Load, Nominal Input Voltage)
Efficiency
70% Typical at Full Load and Nominal Input Voltage

I think so, but wait for others to post their replys too...

As the sticky says, Wattage doesn't mean jack. You want at least 24A on the 12V rail. But yours look ok to me.

**Archangel** · 09-04-2005, 06:36 PM

i've got a question.
if it says like 12v and 12v with a small 2 on the bottom right of it, what does it mean? And how do you figure out the amount of amps on the ?dual? 12v rails?

**Archangel** · 09-04-2005, 07:05 PM

usually the 2 12V rails are the same amperage
