    What watt power supply would i need for these components?

    AMD Athlon 64 X2 3800 Dual Core Retail S939

    Zalman CNPS7000B-Cu Blue LED Socket A/S478/S754/S939/S940

    GSkill Dual Channel PC-4000 2GB HZ Series

    Asus A8R-MVP Motherboard Socket 939

    ATI Radeon X1800 GTO 256MB Retail PCIe

    Western Digital 250GB 7200rpm 16MB Cache SATA


    I've currently got a 400 watt power supply, would this be okay for those? If not what is the minimum they would run at well?

    Thanks.

    Yes it will. High quallity i'd say.
    If you can afford a 512MB graphics card then go for it. The x1800 is fine and dandy, although obviously the x1900 would be even better.

    I use a single x1900 and Oblivion defaults to Ultra high quality. My lad's PC is same spec as mine, but with a x1600 512MB Oblivion defaults to High quality.

      What resolution are you running it at? I'd only want it for 1280x1024 (PC monitor) and 1280x720 (Sony HDTV). Would the card be adequate for that?

        I'm runing 1280x768 on an LCD telly.
        ATI x series have no probs at that resolution and indeed higher.

          Ah cool, might just get a better graphics card later. A Xfire mastercard or something. Aslong as it can run games at a decent frame rate i'm not too bothered. Thanks for replying!

          EDIT:

          Oooh. Forgot to ask, what watt powersupply are you using? The one that i have at the moment is 400 watts i think. Would that be enough?
