Hey peeps :wave:

I need to get this 'pc' working, however it misses power supply and since im a such a pc noob i require some help! ;)
specs;
Motherboard; Gigabyte GA-M52S-S3P
Processor; AMD AM2 Athlon64 X2 4000+ (65W) (64bit)
Graph; PCI-E GeForce 8500GT 256MB DDR3 128bit sonic NE/850TS+TD21
Ram; 1GB DDR2 800Mhz
Sound; SB Live! 5.1

What is the minimal power supply i'd need to get this working? ^^
I think i've got like 1 of 350W and 1 of 400W but of what ive already heard it might not be enough.
Thoughts?
 
For that setup pretty much anything will do.. 350W should be fine, if it actually does deliver 350W.
 
I would suggest a 500 watt power supply to best support what you have now, especially the graphics card, and allow for future expansion. I am using this one (link below).
Very quiet and avoids the cheap garbage without costing a fortune!
