Hey there,
I'm buying parts for a new computer and I have/going to have a Gigabyte S-series AMD motherboard, 256Mb Leadtek 7600GT graphics, an AMD AM2 Sempron 3400, 1GB Corsair XMS2, DDR2 and an 80gig maxtor HD.
Would a 580 watt power supply be too much/not enough for such a setup?
I'm fairly new to this building game so i'm too worried about fatally mucking it all up..

thankyou very much! Turns out I don't need as much as 580 watts, (300 is the minimum recommended!).
I'm gonna pull out all the stops anyway and have a kick *** pc by the end of the month! Thanks :)

well make sure the PSU slot on the motherboard is the same as the PSU u are getting,
um, 580 sounds good
just incase you want to upgrade and so you have room to overclock
