For now i have a antec SL400 (http://www.antec.com/us/productDetails.php?ProdID=25400) powering a 3200+barton, 9800pro, 1 WD raptor, 1GB ddr400 and 1 optic.

I want to buy a DFI Lanparty NF2 B soon, with a XP-M 2500+. Sure i'm gonna overclock it, and was wondering if my actuall power supply would be able to take the load. There was a FAQ somewhere saying that 450watts was a minimum for DFI lanparty/infinity.

If not, do this one will do the job?Fortron 500w (http://www.ncix.com/products/index.php?sku=14069&vpn=AX500-A&manufacture=FSP%20GROUP%20USA) Only 100$!

That antec will power that system just fine in my opinion why buy something you don't need just to be cool?

:with: Your system isn't very power consuming so the antec will be fine.

I justed wanted to be sure, if this power supply will be fine then i will keep it, that FAQ with the 450watts recomendation on the DFI was scaring me.. thx again !

No worries, I have a 350w Antec powering a DFI Ultra-B with an XP 2700 OC'd, a gig of RAM, two opticals, two HD's and a 9800 and it hasn't even farted once.
