As per his query (will cooler master 500 watts extreme psu handel hd4850 + intel e7400 properly or should i go for 600 watts cooler master psu)May I know how did you make that analysis?
for these get:500 watts extreme psu handel hd4850 + intel e7400 properly or should i go for 600 watts cooler master psu?
That's under idle- what about under load? Putting the system on load depends on the applications. Stress testing software only will stress the processor, and GPU benchmarking software will stress gpu to a certain time enough to pull out the benchmarking scores.Total system power consumption = 260 watts APX (well under 430 watts)
So some headroom still left for further upgrade or for some OC as well.
Don't burn your bucks because E7400 don't require that board at all rather go for any of among these and they are available at least on this very site or any other P35 or P43 chipset based MOBO under 6K max will do.::::::::::::::::::::
1) processor- E7400 ( 6.1 k)
2)board P5Q E (12 k) (coz P5E is not available and i submit query for GA x38 D
S5(1.1), DQ6 kindly let me know if available in nehru place and price)
3)Ram -kingston DDR2 2GB600-1200
4)Graphic card -MSI 4850 1GB OC (9.7 k)
5) Western Digital 250GB 16mb cache (2.5k)
6)zebronic B2 pro (2.9k)
7)zebronic 600 pro (4.1 k ) good psu than cooler master.kindly see specification. *www.zebronics.net/pro_600.asp

kindly give ur comment on this
Yes surly I do agree with you but in real world how many among us push our systems to the limit 24x7. Secondly yes VX 450 have advantages over EA 430 but then again I suggested it only if one is on shoe laces budget who considering Cooler master Extreme power 500 for himself which is neither 80 plus nor active PFC and only with one year warranty.That's under idle- what about under load? Putting the system on load depends on the applications. Stress testing software only will stress the processor, and GPU benchmarking software will stress gpu to a certain time enough to pull out the benchmarking scores.
Let's not economics now. VX450 has 33 amps. They use 16-18AWG wire. APPA fans and good products, all japanese caps, casing, etc. antec EA 430 has dual rail and its a no brainer that single rail is better than dual/multiple +12v rails. Another advantage is You are getting 5 years warranty and now price for corsair vx450 has slipped down from 4.2k to 3.9k in many places. Just by adding 400-500 bucks you are getting a much better supply. So why not just buy vx450??
