Im building a new gaming pc but im not sure if this PSU will be able to handle it. the specs for the pc are:

AMD 3700+ San Diego skt 939
Asus A8N-SLI Deluxe NF4 SLI ATX
2.5GB Crucial ddr memory (2x 1Gb and a 512mb)
Western Digital Caviar SE 250GB 7200RPM SATA2/300 16MB Cache
Creative Soundblaster Audigy 4 PCI Soundcard
XFX GeForce 7800GT Extreme Edition 256MB

and the PSU im thinking of getting is a 'Hiper 480W Type-R' (its got a peak load of 530 watts)

if anyone can give me any advice if this will be able to handle my setup i would be grateful

thanks ;)
 
1. Id advise you change your Graphics card..... You can get a 7900GT (Which out performs a 7800GT & 7800GTX) and is cheaper than the GTX. Its $309 for a XFX 7900GT.

2. Just get 2GB of RAM

3. Id reccomend a Audigy 2 ZS, is better then the Audigy 4.

4. PSU, theres 34A on Dual 12v lines.... Thats OK.
 
i was gonna get 3gb of RAM but i have a budget to stick to:)

i read a bunch of reviews about the grahics card i wanna get and it runs superbly and most of the guys only had 1gb of ram and AMD 32OO venice. my specs outweigh theirs by quite a bit.

and ive found the XFX GeForce 7800GT Extreme Edition for only £178 ($309) and i couldn't find the 7900 anywhere for that price :P

im happy with the sound card im gettin. right now ive been using a onboard sound card, so anything will be an improvement for what ive got now lol

Ah right, your in the UK..... Yeah, seems that companies add on 30% on the US equivalent to us UK buyers :D

Where did you find a 7800GT that cheap? New?

EDIT: Found a 7900GT for £240... I would seriously consider it, its a far superior card.
 
i just remebered when you mentioned u couldnt find the GPU lol. im gettin everything else from ebuyer but im gettin the graphics card from www.overclockers.co.uk. its on sale there for £178 inc VAT i wanna hurry up and get my money so i can buy it !!
