Is my power supply good enough???
I have an Enermax Liberty 500w PSU
here's my setup:
C2D X6800 (will be overclocked)
EVGA 680i SLI A1
Buffalo Firestix FSX800D2C-K2G 2GB 2X1GB PC2-6400 (will be overclocked)
EVGA 7900GT CO Superclocked 550MHz gpu 1580MHz ram
2 x WD 74GB Raptor 8mb
1 x WD 500gb sata2 WD5000AAKS
Pioneer DVR-110D
G15 keyboard
G5 mouse
6 x 120mm Antec Tri Cool fans (all running max rpm)
1 x 200mm Antec Tri Cool fan (running max rpm)
will my PSU be enough power if i want to overclock my cpu and ram... i plan to go no higher than 1.45v on the cpu and no higher than 2.2v for the ram??
also i'll be upgrading the video card to an 8800GTS in the near future and I wonder if i'll need more power for that upgrade?
if my PSU isn't enough then can anyone recommend something I could get that's not too expensive... less than $140 after taxes
i also like modular power supplies but that's not a MUST have

6x 120mm fans?
Did you pickup the Antec 1200? I have the antec 900 and that has 4x 120mm and 1x200mm
That power supply is good for your system. I use one cable for all my fans then another one for hard drives.
You could always upgrade to the Infinity line of Enermax_______________

You'll be fine if you don't do SLI.
