My friend has one and he said the 460 watt power supply didn't cut it for his

MSI K8N NEO 4 Platinum
AMD64 4800 Dual Core
Two MSI 6800 GeForce GXT's running SLI
Two gigs Corsair Ram
Two Samsung DVD RW
One Western Digital 250 Gig
One Western Digital 74 Gig Raptor


So that gets me thinking...my PC stats are

Pen D 3.0 Dual Core
eVGA e-GeForce 7800 GTX W/ACS3 PCI Express 256MB DDR3
eVGA Dual TV Tuner
4 Gigs of DDR2 Ram
2 Sony DVD Burners
Sony Floppy (hehe)
2 Wester Digital 250 Gig

Does anyone think that power supply will handle all that?

But more to the point is what quality is the PSU? The case is alright but I'd check the specs of the PSU.
Minimum 17a on the +12v for a start.

I also note the 38dB intake fan volume, could be a little noisy.
