here we go again with this whole psu thing, i run my system(p41.8Ghz,256ram,gecube radeon 9600se,2hdd,burner,dvdrom) all off a 250w psu (could be the shuttle modelof psu)
if the psu is too small, and you have a case with room to spare, then you can always mod the box, change the brackets and shove a new psu in, sixe must be resonable.

Hehehe you must be so very insecure, Metla. I really must make a note to buy all my computer equipment from Computer Medic in future. Not only are you the most highly qualified Tech in NZ, but also the super-mature business man. All this ire because I disagreed with your opinion on hardware!

Try to arm yourself with facts next time rather then jabs at me.

http://www.orangecomputers.co.nz/ <-- anybody got negatives on that? I see that they have 3 year warranty as a standard thing with their computers. My Dad also like long warranties.

Easy now Metla. As you said once before, biting tongue is not a bad idea. But you do produce more than your fair share of jabs.
Bite tongue a bit more ...
