AcBel 510w with Radeon 4850

[akera]

---

i'm planning to buy Radeon hd4850. my PSU is the AcBel 510w currently powering; E8200(at stock speed), 1dvdrw PATA, 1 SATA hdd, 1 PATA hdd, 2 X 1gb DDR2 (800), 1 PCI 56k modem, 3 120mm fans . i would just like to ask if my PSU can handle if i install a Radeon hd4850. i've already gone to eXtreme Power Supply Calculator, and the estimated wattage was 285w, but i just wanna make sure to avoid hassle after buying the vid card. any info is greatly appreciated, most especially if you're using the same PSU. thank you. btw, my mobo is a matx (Gigabyte GAG31M-S2L).

AcBel is a very good brand of PSU.... not as widely known as Enermax, Antec, Silverstone... pero its right up there with them.... I'm pretty sure you wont have any problems with your setup.


I'm using one btw... so far so good... Active PFC... 80% efficiency... barato pa.

just check your 12v rail. it would be better if you have 26amps or higher. today's requirement on PSU is not only how much total power it can deliver but you need to check how much power it can deliver on it's 12v rail. and how stable the voltages are if you have a big load on 12v.

I've tried it with 8800GT ... no problems encountered.

If you check other philippine forums (TPC) they have generally positive comments about the PSU .. these are from actual users sa product... the only negative comment I've read was on the link above... couldnt find any other review with the same findings.
