Power Supply

[CHEVYMAN_02]

I plan to get a Geforce FX 5600 Ultra and was wondering what kind of power supply should i use?

you can probably get by with a 350 watts... but i always recommend at least 400... im not sure if the 5600 needs an extra molex connector, i think it does... and always. dont get a chepo brand!!! powersupplys are very brand specific... go with enermax or antec.

The Case i am going to get comes with a Mustang 400 Watt PS. Would that be good?

Unless it comes with an Antec or Enermax power supply, I would not trust any PSU from any company that is included with a case. I ordered a case and planned to use the 430W PSU that was included, but it was DOA. I put my 500W Leadman unit into the case and lo and behold it worked perfectly. Speaking of said Leadman PSU, it's a surprisingly high quality power supply for not a lot of money. I think I paid $63 for mine and that was well over a year ago. For a "cheap" power supply, it certainly doesn't act like one.

I agree sat, but just so you know, for some odd reason, PowerMagic's power supplies 450W and up (only like $20) have GREAT rail strength compared to all others in it's price category...

be careful they don't ship you an "x-case" brand p/s though... definitely not as good...
