Well, 512MB for about a week. (current RAM)

Then I will be putting 2GB of high quality in there, then comes the X2 monster.

I wouldn't have gotten a $90 PSU if you were going on a budget.

wasn't on a really strict budget

just didn't want to build a conroe beast, because I am waiting for AMD's answer to the conroe

either way I wouldn't use the full power of a conroe, I will see how the 3500+ treats me first

plus I wanted a PSU that I could use in future builds, not like the generic one I have now (which I am surprised has lasted me a year so far!)
