    I have posted before I was building a pc, but I never asked bout the psu. I was looking at newegg and most of the cases...peeps said the psu's were garbage. So what can you guys recommend?

    I keeping hopping on mobo and chip ideas due to budget concerns, but i think im going for the amd clawhammer 3500+ 512 l2 cache socket 939 and gigabyte mobo.Whichs puts me at 350.00 bucks. So can you recommend
    a psu that can handle it....plus two harddrives...a dvd/cd writer...and a floppy.

    Also out of curiousty is sony a good writer? I seen on newegg they had a dual layer dvd/cd writer for $70.00 bucks.

    Thanks for your time :>

    What does dual 12 volt mean? Most of the psus on newegg say no dual 12 volt

    Heres the link for the case

    http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.asp?Item=N82E16811209018

    If you look at the pics..they have a clear shot of the label specs for the psu. It looked alright holding 17 amps at 12 volts. But since this is my first build I had to ask.

    Hey while we are on the subject what does dual +12 support mean?

    I'm sure it would be fine. As for the "Dual +12 support" NO CLUE my friend.

    Ok thanks unique. Good thing is the case has a one yr warranty which im assuming covers the psu. Pretty wicked case for cheap huh? I like the dragon. Cant wait to have my sytem running. And I will be running windows 64 bit. Im gonna be living large..lol. Thanks for your time unique...I really appreciate it. :>

    I was only curious what the dual support was, because very few psus have it..most dont.
