PSU inquiry?

[dfresh12]

not sure about how much wattage i will need. I looked at this PSU

http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16817341041

I am getting an i5 MSI p67 board.
I will also be running 2 HDs, 8gb of ram, and a Radon 6870.
Also DVD drive and about 4 fans.
Eventaully getting a SSD.

Is this not enough power? Enough? or to much?

Thanks in advance

I wouldn't get it.
I personally don't like OCZ.

I wouldn't get anything over 2x 12V rails either.
Try looking at Corsair: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16817139006&Tpk=Corsair 750

It'll be fine for your spec, but I too am not a fan of multi-rail PSUs so I'd look elsewhere.

Antec or Corsair would be a better purchase.

For that system, something around 500W would be the sweet spot. You don't need more power than that. Here are some suggestions:

500 Even if I am going to OC?

Get a nice Corsair... 650/750w and be done with it.

500 Even if I am going to OC?

Yes.

500 Even if I am going to OC?

Yes, but if there is the slightest chance you might consider a 2nd or higher end video card in the next 2 years you might want to consider 650-750W.
