800w power supply unit enough to power this spec?

Question

Intel Core 2 Quad Q6600 G0 Stepping (2.4GHz 1066MHz) Socket 775 L2 8MB Cache (2x4MB (4MB per core pair)

Asus STRIKER EXTREME 680I SLI Socket 775 onboard Audio ATX

XFX GeForce 8800GTS 640MB GDDR3 DVIx2 TVO PCI-E Graphics Card

Corsair 2GB Kit (2x1GB) DDR2 800MHz/PC2-6400 XMS2 Memory Non-ECC Unbuffered CL5(5-5-5-12) Heat Spreader

and also what effect does a power saving cpu has on the quad cpu...
Intel Core 2 Quad Q6600 Energy Efficient 95W edition Socket 775 (2.40GHz) G0 Stepping L2 8MB Cache OEM Processor

Answer 1

Yep. That's about right. Might want to go with 1000 to be safe, but 800 is all good.

Choosing The Right Power Supply For Your System

What Do I Need To Look For In A New Power Supply?

Approximate Current Values For Various Devices (in Amps)


Total Deliverable Power
The total deliverable power rating of a power supply is another important factor for consideration

recommended cushion between what your devices draw and the maximum output rating of the power supply is usually set at around 30%. This will not only ensure proper operation, but will also allow room for growth in case a device is added or a card is plugged in.

Output Connectors / Specifications
Any complete description of a power supply will include the number and types of connectors present on the power supply unit along with specifications of the min/max power ratings to be found on each rail. For someone who isn't familiar with all of the technical aspects associated with the specifications, the easiest way to gauge the output performance quality is to look at the current specification on the +12V rail. This rail serves as the primary source of power to the processor and is crucial for system stability and performance. While there isn't an exact specification on these numbers, generally it is best to purchase a unit with a 15 Amp or greater (the higher the better) max current specification on the +12V rail. For higher-end units this number will usually be in the range of 20A or more.

Answer 3

That is more than enough, by far. You could add a second one of those video cards in SLI and you would still have enough. As for that processor, looks to me like just marketing crap, the Q6600 with G0 stepping is 95W to begin with, so the Energy Efficient label is just marketing.

Answer 4

I power a very similar set up with a 650W PSU, so 800 will be fine, try get a modular one though, you only need to have the minimum number of cables than, and it will increase airflow because there are not as many cables.

Answer 5

Totally! More than enough!

Answer 6

It's kinda funny you should have the username 'dustbin', 'cos your ?question? kinda reminds me of those old unsolvable riddles on that old game show 321.
They never made any sense either, just like you sonny boy.

Answer 7

Yes, is enough .
