Some advice please

[Tortel]

I would like to get a G92 later this year, probably after the holidays, but I know that I will need a new PSU. I dont want something that will make my power bill extremely high, and I would like something below $200, around $150 would be great.

So, I have a two questions:

1 - What should I look for in a PSU? All I know so far is that you want more amperage on the +12v, not 3/5v

2 - What specs do you think could handle the upcoming nVidia G92? Wattage, amperage

3 - Some suggestions/recommendations

I have tried to look through the big tier list, but that doesnt help much when I have no idea what to look for.

I don't know about G92 but I know in general you want amps and a good name.
I will recommend OCZ every damn day of the week. Other will also tell you PC power and cooling and a few others, most are good.
Don't skimp.

get the corasair hx620 it has the 8 pin connectors that u will need for that card

Hmm, I must say that this (http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16817341002) PSU does look tempting. 3 +12v rails, 18A each, and it is cheaper than the Corsair HX620. Graphics cards usually come with power adapters, so a connector isnt that important.

I expect the G92 to require about the same power as the 8800 Ultra, hopefully something that can power 8800s in SLI can haldle it :P

Silverstone OP/DA series has always been recommended around here. PC Power & Cooling Silencer 610w or greater is excellent also. Enermax Infinity too.

Have a look at the Tiered PSU list and get anything from Tiers 1 or 2 like the other poster said. My advice to you is to get a single +12v rail so you dont have to worry about load balancing between rails.

Well, the Silverstone OP750 looks pretty good, nice 60A on a single +12v rail, and its only about $170. Its on tier 1, but some reviews say that it can be noisy.

I hope a 750 watt PSU will hold next gen graphics cards :P

No one can give you a legit suggestion without knowing the total load you will have..
List the specs of the machine..
Hard drives,video card,fans..all of it..
Then we can give you a better and more intelligent solution.

Most of it is in my sig

Asus P5B Deluxe
C2D e6300
200GB IDE Drive
160gb SATA Drive
SATA DVD burner
Zerotherm BTF90
2x 80mm case fans
1x 120mm case fan

Andthe new graphics card, its probably safe to assume that it will use about (hopefully less) as mush power as one or more 8800GTX
