not a problem on the power supply , i have one running now . what a lot of newbie dont know is the biggest draw on the power supply is on the start up ,then it goes to idle mode till you start a heavy draw like writing to the hard drive or burning a cd or dvd ,the rest of the time it uses very little power. it keeps the computer running the drives spinning things like this ,just like a cars engine it runs at idle uses a little gas till you put it in gear an step on the gas
