WTB: 500w+ PSU in Ottawa.

[Skyllz]

This is a long shot but we have a few Ottawa guys in here so i'm trying.

500w-600w to run a AMD 6000 = 8800GTS with some headroom.

I need that for this wednesday max, if I cant find anything i'll grab one at pccyber.

I browsed kijiji an dusedottawa also over the week-end with no replies.

Thanks.

Thanks for the PM'S from outside but i'll just paste the reply I sent so you might understand a little better the wednesday night dealine thing...

Long story short, I'm building a computer out of spare/leftover parts for a buddy who's old computer blew up(almost litteraly, psu took everything out) a couple weeks ago.

I'll be using the wife's 450w PSU that is in her box and upgrade it at the same time for her 8800gts coming in(today hopefully).

He's coming over friday night for the week-end so I want to give me a day or 2 in case something goes wrong during the build, hence the wednesday night "deadline".

Thanks.

I live in Ottawa and the best I could do is a 400watt Sparkle/Forton powersupply. Just go to either PCcyber or OEMExpress.

Yeah, no PCI-e connector. Thanks for checking.

I ended up picking up the New Corsair 400W PSU at PcCyber, 65$, 30a on the 12V rail, nicely constructed, quiet fan, i'm surprised and happy.

Skyllz, PC Cyber is always a great place to buy. The boys are usually very helpful.

I usually go there since it's on my way back from work, they dont have the greatest prices but I dont have to spend 10$ of gas to go somewhere else in traffic.

Now if only they would stop giving redbull to their staff so they would relax a little more...

[gambitz]

Haha. That's true. Actually PCCYBER usually have good deals. Often better than NCIX and newegg.ca
The staff at Pccyber knows me by name. (Good for their business LOL).

Just curious, is 400 watts actually enough for your system? I dont think you got enough headroom for future upgrades...
