I have started to build my second rig recently. I didn't have much experience with the first because my friend was the main person who built it. So this is my first real shot at building a PC. I am caught up in a bind determining what type of PSU I need? (i.e. Wattage and Etc.). These are my specs so far that I have chosen:
AMD Phenom 9950 2.6GHz Socket AM2+ 125W Quad-Core Black Edition Processor
ZEROtherm Nirvana NV120 120mm 2-ball UFO Bearing / Transparent CPU Cooler
OCZ SLI-Ready Edition 4GB (2 x 2GB) 240-Pin DDR2 SDRAM DDR2 1000 (PC2 8000) Dual Channel Kit Desktop Memory (GETTING 2 OF THEM SO 8 GIGS ALL TOGETHER)
EVGA 896-P3-1267-AR GeForce GTX 260 Core 216 Superclocked Edition 896MB 448-bit GDDR3 PCI Express 2.0 x16 HDCP Ready SLI Supported Video Card (GETTING 2 FOR 2-WAY SLI)
Foxconn Destroyer AM2+/AM2 NVIDIA nForce 780a SLI ATX AMD Motherboard
Western Digital RE3 WD3202ABYS 320GB 7200 RPM SATA 3.0Gb/s Hard Drive
Antec Twelve Hundred Black Steel ATX Full Tower Computer Case
SAMSUNG 22X DVD±R DVD Burner with LightScribe Black SATA (x2)
........... That's it for the moment. Been working on it for awhile. Please send feedback on PSU and any other hardware. Thanks.
