Rhino 450w enough???

[ge714]

I have a case with a Rhino SP-450Y Atx Power Supply, will it be enough to run

Asus M3A78-CM mobo with Phenom II x4 940
+ 2 gigs (will upgrade soon)
+ ati 9250

This is not a gaming pc , strictly for beats.

How many amps does it have on the 12V rail?

Hard to find information about the psu.

Probably an A-Top Rhino power supply.
Not too long ago you could have got the A-Top RHINO ATP-RX500 500W power supply from NewEgg for $29 with a $29 rebate.

One active listing at NewEgg A-Top SUPER CHARGE ATP-AP550B 550W also getting poor customer reviews.

Company website home page and support pages not working - which is a very bad sign. http://www.a-top.com

All signs point to "AVOID"

The Rhino SP-450Y is made by Raidmax. Here are the specs:

1x 120mm Fan

Input Voltage: 115/230 V

Output: +3.3V@20A, +5V@26A, +12V@21A,
-12V@0.5A, -5V@0.5A, +5VSB @ 2.0A

Connectors: 20+4 pins main power, 4 pin ATX-12V, 1x SATA, 6x 4 pin Molex, 1x Floppy, 1x PCI-E 6-Pin

I have to agree the Rhino does not appear to be much of a psu. Not much of a +12 volt rail. Power connectors are not up to date.

Thanks for the help guys.

I definitely wont be using the rhino if it costs $29 with a $29 rebate. lol It sounds like a disaster in the making.

Im now looking at the Raidmax Smilodon Mid Tower, but from the reviews on newegg and other sites, the psu seems pretty useless.

So far,

Ultra LS600

I certainly don't want my pc to blow up, so any recommendations from Tiger Direct or newegg for around $60 besides the Ultra?

thanks

Raidmax PSUs aren't that great either, but I'm not sure if it is a Raidmax PSU in the case too. I don't think you'd need a Ultra 600W PSU. I think this one will work as well.
