So im running this rig at home and its not performing to its full potential.
Specs: P4 3.0GHZ 2MB lvl 2 Cache
2GB PQI DDR2 533 PC4200 [4x512]
PCI-e ATi X800XL
2x 200GB Maxtor HDD SATA 1.5 [ RAID 0]
1x Plextor DVD-RW
so you see i have a lot of power hungry components in this little box, all running of a 300w PSU with ONE 12 volt rail at 16 Amps
MY QUESTION IS [ help me Sane Man! ]
im going to buy a new case/psu [ micro atx desktop ] and i need to know if its better for me to get one with a PSU that has a SINGLE 35 amp 12 volt rail, or one that has TWO 12 volt rails, one at 16, and the other 18 amps. Both are 500w. this box is used for gaming and multimedia, and i think that if i get it running the way its supposed to, i might get a few more months out of it :nerd thanks in advance.
