Modern systems are skewed towards the +12v rail...ideally you would like to see a minimum of 35 amps there.Originally Posted by imasoldier
Furthermore, you would prefer that the amperage is delivered continuously...i.e. the voltage does not vary much from idle to load.
The problem for you, the consumer, is that there is no industry standard for measuring the output of a PSU- they can pretty much say anything they want.

At Lynx: I'd like to do both, but the next computer I build that will be all gaming won't be so pretty. Here is what I am going to get.

For now I'm just going to stay with one card untill I get more money for another.

For a good Gaming PSU, you want dual 12v rail at 30+A.

The retail CPU comes with a cooler. Try it first before you decide to buy a cooler.
Pneuberator.
The PCI-E connector is six pins
The 4 pin in-line connectors are run of the mill legacy ones,
and unless I'm mistaken, every PSU on the face of the planet has those.
You may have been referring to the mobo auxilliary power connector....
I am just a worthless liar. I am just an imbecile.
I will only complicate you. Trust in me and fall as well.
I will find a center in you. I will chew it up and leave.
I will work to elevate you just enough to bring you down.

anyway i wouldn't get an el cheapo psu, if you want to then go ahead. But seeing how much money you're spending on the stuff like cpu, and vid card, i think you can afford something much better.

yup nice correction, complete mind fuck when i typed that. was staring at the aux cable after i closed the case thinking about how to wire it all together when i buy my pciE card. hence my stupidity.The PCI-E connector is six pins

Urgh, a nice plastic case to let radio interference in and out.
Keep your mobile phone away from it, you would not want it to loose regulation
and blow your other components to bits.
Laptop PSU's generally have a reasonable amount of metal screening inside the plastic case.
