Hi everyone,
I´m planning to buy a PSU, so I choosed this one:
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.asp?Item=N82E16817104951

Just a question:
Will this work with my MSI 661FM2 motherboard? :confused:

This is my system config:
Intel celeron 2.6GHZ
MSI 661FM2
ATA 100 40GB 5400RPM Seagate hdd
Ati radeon 9600XT 256MB
1 Cd-rw drive, 1 dvd drive
1 floppy drive

I think 300W is enough for my system. I heard the FSP psu´s are very good.
My 200W PSU is from FSP and never failed.
Any comments on FSP Group power supplies?
Thanks

Get an Antec, thats all you will ever need hehe~!
Theyre way too good!

And I suggest that you may get a bigger one. Dont think about what you need now, think about what you might need in the future... :D Get a 500w +

The Fortron PS are good, lots of overclockers use them and report great results.

I would suggest this one http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.asp?Item=N82E16817104954

Most of us TZ'ers believe the PS is one of if not the most important part of our PC's. Get a good powerful one.

Antec, Enermax, OCZ, Silverstone, are the brands I like :)

I usually prefer to stick with Antec,Enermax or Thermaltake.Have been using them for a while with no problems yet. :)

Thanks for your suggestions. But, even for the future, 300 is more than enough. I´m not interested in dual core processors and things very high tech.
A question:
Will the PSU that i listed work with my MSI 661FM2 motherboard?
The main connector of the 300W PSU is 20+4pin. My motherboard connector is standard 20pin, and the processor cable.
Thanks.

Yes it'll work with your MB, its setup for the 20+4 pin.
