Anything above 400W and below $50 is probably gonna die out on you.Hot_Potato

Never go cheap on the PSU. You can go cheap to some degree on every other part in a PC, but a PSU that's too cheap can end up turning your hundreds of dollars worth of electronic equipment into a giant paperweight. Buy good first, cheap second.madrocketeer

I found this one from thermaltake

its not too big, butit should power that system right?

you might be right, but do you really need to spend 100+ dollars on a PSU for that system? I could understand a high enddual,possibly quadcore system, but a 2.0 Ghz P4?353535355353535

No FSP is fine.

For a rig like your's, I'd aim at a cheap 430w PSU from Thermaltake/FSP. :/

That Thermaltake TR2 430W sucks compared to the FSP Group 400W.
