When looking for a powersupply for a Standard ATX (AMD) motherboard...Does the powersupply specifically need to say it will work with "AMD" type motherboards? I figure 300watts will do but some say "300watts 12volt," "300wattsP4" or just "300watts."

I've never really run into problems like that...as long as you get an ATX power supply, compatibility shouldn't be an issue at all.1996 Pontiac Firebird: A4, Flowmaster 80 Series, dual 3\" Stainless Steel tips, SLP CAI, Alpine CDA-9813 deck, Infinity speakers, Alpine Type R sub, MTX Thunder 801d amp, Tsunami 2 Farad Capacitor.<br /> <a href=\"http://www.cardomain.com/id/firebirdfury\" target=\"_blank\">http://www.cardomain.com/id/firebirdfury</a>Comment

Okay I didn't know for sure. Here's one for example... Case w/PwrSply The power supply specs just say 350watts. So, just so the power supply is for atx motherboards (regardless if it's a pentium or amd), I'll be in good shape then? Thanks2006 TiburonComment

you'll be fine. But try to steer clear of off-brand manufacturers. Lousy power supplies can cause all sorts of headaches down the road.
I usually recommend Sparkle PS'es.╓<br />║ Matt M<br />║ <a href=\"http://home.austin.rr.com/morrism/3800/sunset_logo2.jpg\" target=\"_blank\">Down with the Sixxness</a> <br />║ Polo Green 1995 3.8 Camaro<br />║ intake, cat, catback, shocks, 3.42\'s, and 12\'s in the trunk<br />╙Comment

Hey that's the site where I just ordered the motherboard from. I like their prices and free shipping.
I'm rebuilding a computer for my wife's boss and planned on reusing his old case and PS. However, the old case only holds micro-atx motherboards and I accidentally ordered a standard atx board from newegg.

Thanks for the info.2006 TiburonComment
