Hi guys
I love my sawtooth and love modding it (no crazy stuff though ) and upgrading it - but I've just noticed (to my horror) that the psu is only rated at 200max Watts!!! I think it's actually 208
I have 2 fast hd's (2x 80gb WD's w/8mb cache) in there, a radeon 8500agp, a slot fan (running at 7v) and was thinking of a 1.4ghz upgrade. it also runs the keyboard and mouse, a midi controller and a usb audio device (that has it's own power though) (the usb midi controller runs of an adaptec pci 5way) - usb card.
I wanna wait for the 7457's to come out, but if i got a 7455b wouldn't it kill my psu/push it over the edge? The thing must be near max output already? What do you guys think?
Is it possible to use a PC psu in mysawtooth, or to stick a psu from a quicksilver or something in there (i don't wanna put it in an atx case though)? I think it could do with some extra power?
Ps - anyone know when gigadesigns are bringing out 7457 chips? The 7457 is now on their number scheme on their website!
Cheers!
