Power supplies

[wetbikebubba]

Hi,
I'm thinking of putting together these parts. What should I look for in a power supply. I'm think that I like Rosewill. http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16813131179

I'll think about the HDD later. Thanks,
James

So your budget would be around $50?

These are good for that price range

I wouldn't get a Rosewell, I heard they're cheap.

^ I heard that Rosewills are pretty good. Their other products stink.

What are you computer specs?

 

[cheburns]

Tigerdirect has good ultra power supplies pretty cheap for what they are and I've heard some people bash Rosewills and others swear by them so I'd still be on the fence about one... mixed reviews are no good.

I got this Rosewill a month or so ago. See my sig for what it's powering. Using the PC Probe utility on my Asus board, the voltages are very good, and consistant under load. Time will tell if I ever buy another one, but I'm happy so far.

Infact that was the one I was looking at, but I need to know if it is compatable with my processor.

Well...
1 x Main connector (20+4 pin)
1 x 12V (4 pin for P4)
1 x EPS 12V (8 pin)
4 x SATA
2 x PCI-E
6 x peripheral(Molex Easy-release connector applied)
2 x Floppy

I think that can hold ANY system.

Yes it's compatible. Rosewill are all over the place - a huge number of different manufacturers at vastly different quality levels. The RP series are good, though. The Ultra units are great value as well, if you don't mind tigerdirect. You might want to take a look at my entire list: http://www.computerforum.com/90117-ceewi1s-psu-recommendations.html
