    Post will 300 be enough...?

    hi guys,
    i had a major problem a few days ago. i'd actually thought i'd burned my mobo, when in fact my psu had died on me. i still haven't figured out why that'd happen.
    can an unseated vid card do that? later i tried it without video and just one fan, and it seemed to go smoking again (who said smoking wasn't addictive..?!)
    and how many case fans (80mm) can i daisy-chain to one connector?
    will 300W be enough for this:
    athlon [email protected]
    epox 8k7a
    256 ddr
    barracuda IV 40gb
    geforce2 mx400 64mb
    toshiba 16x dvd
    sblive 5.1
    sk-6 with 80-60 adaptor
    and 5 80mm case fans

    Yes, 300W is more than enough & IMO you can daisy chain a few fans. You can't go wrong with an Enermax, or even a Sparkle.
    I also have a Antec that works fine. Good Luck..
