Hp Hdd Dvd

What is the best possible power supply (capacity?) for a core 2 quad/GTX 260 PC?
Hey everyone,
I am getting a new PC which would house a Core 2 quad Q??? 2.33Ghz, 4 gig RAM, 1 HDD and an XFX GTX 260 Black Edtion (HP External DVD writer , should not affect power supply) with no further thoughts of adding anything. What capacity power supply should I get? Please Help?
You need a PSU that can deliver at least 35 Amps on its +12V rail.
The Core 2 Quad Q6xxx-series draws 120 watts maximum, the Q7xxx-, Q8xxx and Q9xxx-series are the newer 45nm CPUs and draw less, with a maximum of 90 watts. Let's assume the worst case and you got a Q6x00-series that draws 120 Watts. 120 watts / 12 volts = 10 Amps.
The GTX260 draws a maximum of 182 Watts, according to nVidia: http://www.nvidia.com/object/product_geforce_gtx_260_us.html (click on the specifications tab.) 182 watts / 12 volts = 15 Amps.
Rest of your system with 1 HDD, 1 ODD, mobo + ram will pull another 5 amps on the +12V. Put in a 5-amp headroom so you can add more drives in the future, and we arrive at an optimum of 35 Amps on the +12V for your system.
This PSU should drive your system nicely, with 41 Amps on its +12V (That's 11 amps of headroom for your config, which is way more than plenty): http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16817139004
Hope this helps.
