What kind of PSU do I need?

T-Bird 1.4GHz @ ++++
Vantec CCK-6035D HSF
512MB PC-2100 (Micron)
Epox 8K7A+
2X IBM 60GXP 41 GB (Raid 0)
Hercules 3D Prophet 3 (GF3)
SB-Live Value
D-Link 538TX NIC
Asus 8X DVD
LG 12/8/32 CD-RW
USB Mouse/Printer/Gamepad Pro/Gamepad Eliminator Pro
4X 80mm Case Fans

Right now I have a Sparkle 300W and the comp is very unstable. With my Radeon, it was fine @ 1.5GHz (with my 1.2 GHz CPU)...

Thanks

Frankly, I think your 300W PSU should "cut the {proverbial} mustard" for what you're running. There is a list of AMD approved PSUs, which I do not happen to have the link for. I can assure you it has been posted within the last 30 days, so try searching the forums.

Good luck.

PS: I was using a 300W PSU with a 1.33 @ 1.54Ghz with a Plextor 16/10/40 CDRW, a 30 GB ATA100 HDD, a GeForce GTS vidcard, 7 case fans, a Creative SB Live Value: no problem. It was an AMD Approved PSU...

This PSU IS AMD approved... the problem is, my GeForce 3 is draining too much power I think...
