    Default Question: How to know power consumption of PC?


    Question: How to know power consumption of PC?

    i have a 620w psu... recently i have 2 HD SATA, planning to buy another 1, can it support 3 HDs?

    just take a look at my set-up...

    -Intel E5200 dual core
    -2X1GB DDR2 memory
    -6 120MM fans
    -1 DVD writer
    -8600GT DDR3 memory
    -3 SATA HDD's
    -1 CCFL

    powered by a true rated 500W PSU...if ur PSU is a true rated one, then i would say it is more than enough to power 3 HDD's...pero magdepende gihapon na sa uban PC parts nimo...basin naa ka power hungry nga GPU card...better post the complete specs of ur rig...

    500W True rated PSU's are enough for even the @TS setups. Beyond 500W PSU's are useful if you're in SLI or Crossfire.

    @TS unsa na 620watts na psu imo? corsair na nga hx 620? sakto na sila tanan about sa hdd kay gamay ra nag consumo ang hdd mga 3-10watts raman cguro na or lower ang tagsa.
