Nice! It recommends 371 for my rig, and I have a 350-watt PSU. I'm in the ball-park range.

That was the link that I got from CrimsonSky and someone else (I think it was Mitternacht) when I asked about power supplies...

...I guess they both work since they go to the same place...

Yeah. I give out links for PSU calculators all the damn time. It wouldn't be bad to sticky this.

I don't think that is a good idea to keep on using that PSU.... Don't bunt it when you need a home run. You don't have to hit it out of the park, first row is fine. ;)

I have been recommending this site too. It is great because it is more specific. Can't go wrong with figuring out how much power you need and then picking a PSU off the SLI-certified list off slizone.com.
