Disillusion Daemon Poster Messages 810 Feb 7, 2006 #1 Will the Antec TPII 430W have enough power to run a 7800GT? Newegg says it needs 450W. I'm guessing that they are talking about average PSUs, but Antec is a good one, so might it have enough power?

However, you are OCing your system quite a lot, and I'd imagine you will and will want to do the same with your video card. To be on the safe side and leave room for newer components in the future, I'd buy a Antec TP2 550W.
