I wanna build a new pc..but donno much abt PSU

here is the config...

AMD Athlon 64 X2 4200+ Socket AM2
MSI K9N SLI Platinum Socket AM2, nForce570 SLI

MiddleTower, ATX, 400W 20+4-pin, 2USB, AUDIO, IEEE1394, FAN, Airduct, 5.25''x4, 3.5''x6

Any suggestions on my config. would be appreciated

Corsair 520 w psu. most efficient psu out there. that should be enough power.

Hi All,

minhaz4u, not knowing what your budget is or how you plan on using your machine, I'm suggesting that you increase the size of your Hard Drive. You can buy a 320 GB Drive from New Egg for $80.00. If you're a Gamer you 'll want to go with 2GB of RAM. RAM is very cheap now. In addition you'll also want to go with a Direct X10 Video Card from either Nvidia or ATI/AMD. I'm not familiar with MSI so I can't give a opinion, good or bad. However DFI & ASUS make excellent AMD Motherboards.

Hope this helps

budget range would be nice indeed!

hi guys..thanks a heap 4 d quick response

btw..Is there any prob if i use 500W or more for the above mentioned config.
The motherboard won't blow off,right? (sorry if tht made u laff Very Happy but im really a newie)

500W is enough, that system won't even take that much power.

And you don't "send" watts into your system, so having 1200W wouldn't blow anything, it would just be a waste.

apoptosis has a point, got a price range? you could build a KILLER gaming rig for ~$800-$1200
