Do we really need super large PSU wattage para lang ma meet ang requirements needed?

^ ok ra na ang PSU nmo bro... unsa man diay ang casing nimo? bali, stock PSU na's branded PCs... sipa nag PSUs ang Delta...

package pagkapalit HP Pavilion s3180d set nga SLIMline, yes stock nga branded, mao lagi gasalig ra gyud ko nga branded, haha sipa gyud... imported diay ni mga delta electronic idol...

by the way TS, I have made a re-computation. If your PSU has a 160w spec. and if 77% ang efficiency nya (granting), then it's 160 minus 77% = 123w. that PSU would be running "at most" 123w. and with your power meter indicating you're running nearly 100w, I think that is too close. stressed ang PSU at that load with a very little headroom of about about 20watts. However, since you're not experiencing Restarts and power shutdowns, then I guess he can tolerate that load. Other Gurus, correct me if inaccurate akung computation. ang delikado sa ma-buthan ta ug power supply kay ma apil ang ubang components like motherboards, etc

Katong naa sa power meter sa TS i think mao nana ang total dala sa efficiency sa PSU...
