Need Help with Power Supply

I'm new here so let me start by saying hello all.



Here is my question. I am building a new computer set up and with all the changes in the technology since the last time i built one im a little lost. I need to know what the best power supply would be for my new set up. I need on that抯 good quality but gentle on the wallet.



Here is the parts list so far.

• Gigabyte GA-P35-DS3R Motherboard
• PNY VCG86512GXPB-OC GeForce 8600GT 512MB Video Card
• Intel Core 2 Quad Q6600 LGA 775 Processor
• Crucial Ballistix 1GB 240-Pin DDR2 SDRAM DDR2 800 (PC2 6400)
• Maxtor Basics SATA II 300GB Hard Drive

Do i need 600W or more? Can i go with less W? I wont be running SLI but might change in the future. I just need one that will provide enough power to all parts and thats compatible with them as well.



Thanks for any help or suggestions.

corsair 520w from buy.com or the gamextream ocz 700w from newegg

So i dont need a 600W. Cool. Thanks for the help.

A good 450W will provide sufficient power, if you're looking for recommendations my entire list is at http://www.computerforum.com/90117-c...endations.html. The Corsair VX450 or VX550 would be at the top of my list. Also keep in mind that you won't be able to run SLI with that motherboard.
