OCZ 500W ModXtreme Enough for Me?
I’m shopping around for a modular power supply. Modular since I’m using a Cooler Master Elite 360 small form factor box so I need all the space I can get.
I was looking at the OCZ 500W ModXtreme. Or if you have a recommendation that’s modular and even more affordable?
My system specs are (* indicate likely upgrade soon):
Gigabyte GA-MA785G-UD3H
AMD Phenom 9950 BE *
4x 2GB OCZ DDR2 RAM
GeForce 9400GT 512MB DDR2 *
2x WD 500GB HDs
1x OCZ Vertex 60GB SSD
1x DVD DL RW
1x Zalman CPU fan
2x 120mm fans
3x 80mm fans
6x USB (at most)
According to some online wattage calculators, I’m requiring anywhere from 370 to 480 watts. Sporadic talk about PSUs catching on fire are kinda freeking me out.
