I'm thinking of buying a Coolermaster 530 RC-530-SSN1 case and need a 350-400w-ish powersupply. I know absolutely nothing about power supplies. Here's what I'm planning to put in the case:
Epox EP-9NPA+Ultra motherboard
AMD Athlon64 3000+ (maybe a 3200+)
Seagate 160-200mb ATA HD
Connect3d x700 pcie video card
CDRW drive
512mb ram (to start, will be going to 1gb)
that's it for now, probably will add a DVD driver/burner later.
No overclocking planned for now.
Any particular brands to seek out or avoid?
I'm not looking for a super high end rig. Just something for typical home use, light gaming by the kids, digital photos, mp3's etc.
Thanks.
