Solve : Rule of Thumb for Power Supply Capacity??

1.	Solve : Rule of Thumb for Power Supply Capacity??
Answer» Coolmax isn't a good brand, avoid them. Scythe's 120mm fans are excellent, this isn't a machine that's going to throw off a lot of heat so I'd recommend the 1200RPM fans, quiet and still push a lot of air so you'll have lots of case cooling.Woops! I need to make a correction. The grand total should begin with a 4 not a 2. Personally, I'd recommend changing a few of those PARTS recommended by computeruler. CPU - cheaper, around the same performance. Graphics card - more expensive but MUCH faster. If you don't plan on upgrading this system to use extremely HIGH end graphics CARDS and CPUs, you'd be better going for a PSU around 4-500W and saving the $30 or so IMHO.
