I have an Antec 350W PSU and i wondering if thats enough power for the specs i have below. Windows splash screen sometimes appears dimmed from a cold boot, doesnt do it after a warm boot. Ive also had a BSOD machine_check_exception error heres the link
http://support.microsoft.com/?kbid=329284. Are these problems related to a PSU with not enough juice to handle all these components? Nothing is overclocked in my system. I can play games like HL2 and Doom3 which stress the 6800GT with no lockups or BSODs. I was looking at the antec true blue 480w PSU if you guys recommend i get a better PSU thanks.
