450 watts psu comes with the case.

No hdd thou.

Quote from jmschn : Any recommendation on a video card that can be supported by this build given the 450W PSU? Update: Someone mentioned Radeon 7770

Hmm.. The X4 945 is a 125W part. you could probably squeak any video card under 150 W if you're not running a crazy amount of hard drives. If you're gaming I'd avoid the 7770 and go for one of it's beefier brothers.

The Radeon 7870/6870 or 7850/6850s are probably the best bang for your buck. The 7 series is slightly faster in some benchmarks and has less power consumption but I wouldn't pay more for a 7850 over a 6850.

Quote from lordoff : whoa what happened to the other thread? anyway, question from a first timer: only spare HDD I have is an SSD...I know I'll need a mounting kit since this is a desktop, but will I also need cables? I'm planning on getting http://www.newegg.com/Product/Pro...6817997013

The other thread didn't get deleted. The issue is who gets credit for it.

It was originally shared by 3 people at the incorrect price ($160 AR) - sr71, calistyle, and bluguys. Then, those users changed the price after the fact. Calistyle was the first to modify his price...(to my knowledge) as I was in the middle of compiling a thread with the updated price.

For all the details, you can just look down to post #4 on the original thread. For some reason, calistyle's post isn't on top, as he should be the OP.

Yes, yes,and yes. Even if you don't need it, buy it and flip it. Don't wait until it is OOS and regret not getting it.

Ah dont really need this but i want this....

Quote from iBoo : It doesnt come with a power supply unit, HDD, ????

it does come with 450W psu,
you do have to supply a HDD and OS
but for 99 dollars, this deal beats the heck of anything newegg had offered in the past.

Quote from sukru : However, the RAM rebates would not work for the second one. Each cheap has a $20 rebate, there are two of them, and the rebate has a limit of two. If you buy the second one, it will cost $140R.

well aware of that, i brought it with my gf's credit card and had it under her name hheheheh
