I don't like anything under a 400-watt, but if it's a Gateway it's warrantied if you have any problems.

While I'd like to say it's overkill, for a price figure like that no-one can complain.

My only concern is the noise output. I usually associate "family PC' with "quiet".

Still, none of the three reviewers complained about the noise, so I'm assuming it's fine.
