APEVIA Power supplys?

[hyPoxxx.dll]

Hi, I am wondering if this power supply will handle the following specs: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16817148026

- Radeon x1950pro 512mb x2 (crossfire) (want to over clock)
-3.6Ghz Pentium D (would like to overclock to 4.2ghz +)
-4 gb 1066 mhz ram
- 250 GB sata HDD
- 320 GB sata HDD
- 160 GB sata HDD

I would like that powersupply, because it would go with my apevia case nicely, and my $40 600 watt no namer failed on me a few days ago.

I also hear that wattage doesnt always matter. The amount of amps is what really counts. Is this right?

If that isnt a good power supply, can somone link me to a better one with around the same cost?


Thanks!,

-Dan

I wouldn't recommend buying an Apevia powersupply. They're not exactly known for their quality. For that price take a look at the Corsair HX520, they're excellent units and will easily power that system.

That PSU really isn't sufficient, and as diduknowthat has said, shocking quality. My complete list of recommendations is located at http://www.computerforum.com/90117-ceewi1s-psu-recommendations.html, personally I'd recommend the Corsair VX550
