Hey everyone!

Awhile back I remember someone here guided me to a website that could accurately help me estimate how many watts I needed my PSU to be. If I recall, the interactive website had me type in my various components and then it would tell me how many watts I would be using.

Can someone here help me find that website again?

I have google'd for it and cannot seem to locate it.

Here is my new system build that I am literally assembling at this very moment:

Thermaltake M9 case
Q9550 Processor
Corsair XMS DDR2 800 8 GB
Thermaltake 600 W PSU
Windows Ultimate 64-bit
Gigabyte EP45-UD3P
Western Digital 640 GB 32 Cache
Sea Gate 1.5 TB SATA HD
Lian-Li Bezel Thermometer Gauge
ZeroTherm Zen FZ1205

Closing thoughts:

I received the Thermaltake 600 PSU for free after rebate but when I just did a NewEgg review I was shocked at how terrible people make this unit out to be.

I have several new 500 watt PSU's laying around and I suppose I will use one of those IF the wattage is sufficient.

Can someone help me here please?

Thanks,

It's me,

Soar
