oldest pc in sig.
antecs psu calc says i need 250 continuous power.
need a good psu from newegg preferably. it's a family pc and they don't help me maintain it so i don't want to spend an arm and a leg. but it was my baby way back when, so i don't want to see it blow up either.
i was looking at these:


COOLMAX CX-400B 400W $30
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16817159023

is this a good brand?
Rosewill RD400-2-DB 400W $40
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16817182021

CORSAIR CMPSU-400CX 400W $60 is too much

any other suggestions?
thanks.
 
On a standard midtower case like this one, you only need to remove a side cover, ... After removing the four mounting screws from the old PC power supply, ... the old power supply connectors with connectors from the new power supply.
 
couldn't wait for shipping, so i stopped by a local shop and picked up a 500W no-name psu :mad:
sucks though because it only has 4x four pin molex power connectors, and i have four hard drives and a cd-r. this is the old psu:


but now, somebody pulled the keyboard out and tore off the pins from the ps/2 connector. so now they have to go get one because that one used to be mine and i was nice enough to give it to them :angry:

anybody else this nice to their family? or am i the only dumb@$$ :gun:
