I just dropped quite a lot of money buying a system with the following specs:
FX-55
Asus a8n (pre-ordered)
2 eVGA 6800 Ultras (pre-ordered)
16x DVD dual layer +/-
74 gb Raptor
120 gb West Dig.
Some misc parts that aren't power hungry enough to mention.
The psu that I bought with it is the Ante True Power 480W. I've been thinking long and hard about whether that is enough power. The gfx cards and cpu together shouldn't use more then around 330W and that leaves 150 for everything else.... but is that enough? Any opinions on whether I should go through the hassle of returning the 480W and getting the Antec 550W?
The cost doesn't bother me for the new psu, but I don't really want to go through all the process to do it if there is no need.
