Hi all,

I'm thinking that in a few months I'm going to be swapping over my current hardware to my mom's PC (E6400, DFI Infinity 975X, etc.) but I'm going to keep using my PSU for when I upgrade. Now, I'm going to O/C a little bit on her machine but I'll be limited b/c of the Intel stock HSF, and her video card is really low draw for power, and I'd like to keep the price low, so I was thinking around 450W should be fine? I was just looking for suggestions from you guys just keeping in mind that this new computer will be not power hungry by any means.
 
Yeah the 400 watt mark should be plenty, assuming its a quality PSU that isnt going to explode at 120 watts. E6400 and a low end vid card won't pull anything for power.
