We get a sniff of Intel's discrete graphics plans.
| Beyond3D revealed the future Intel discrete graphics plans with slides from the Visual Computing Group. The architecture is based on 10+ mini-cores that has 10mm2 die size and 6.25W TDP each. Each core has 16-wide 512-bit vector unit capable of executing VLIW instructions. 10 of such cores will be sharing at least 4MB of L2 cache and has a total die size at 140mm2 and 90W TDP. Performance could hit 1.2TFlops. The slides also revealed some fixed functions units and a high-bandwidth memory I/O. Most probably the first card will be pairing up with GDDR5 memories to provide an off-die bandwidth of more than 150GB/s. |

The iGreen looks like the best bet at that pricepoint, or maybe the Silverstone

Yeah the IGreen is a good unit and likely to be one of the quietest. If not the IGreen, maybe the FSP.
430w or 500 igreen?
430w or 500 igreen?
500w would be best. I think you're gonna be cutting it a bit fine with the 430w tbh.



Asus P5B
1 or 2gb ddr2 ram
Intel Core 2 Duo e4300 @ ~ 3Ghz (1.3V)
Leadtek 7800GTX 256mb / 8600GT
HDD
DVDRW
Sound card and other small misc stuff like a couple case fans, an after marked HSF etc..
The system with my Corsair PSU is pulling ~ 200W (0.8A) ( i know wattage isnt the only important thing)
So im between
CoolerMaster IGreen Power 430W/ 500W
Seasonic 430W
Silverstone SST400W
Enermax Coolergiant 380W (dont think so but if itll do..)
Enermax Noisetaker 370W
400W FSP Sparkle Blue storm
Currently between the Igreen, FSP or Seasonic
