No you maximum draw has nothing to do with the size of the powersupply rating. Especially since it is been shown that using power supplies rated higher than your needs tend to last longer. Most Current Desktop systems will be running 150-200W yet will come with 300 to 500Watt power supplies. regards, -- Mark Lane, CET -- mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sales Manager -- Hard Data Ltd -- http://www.harddata.com T: 01-780-456-9771 -- F: 01-780-456-9772 11060 - 166 Avenue Edmonton, AB, Canada, T5X 1Y3 --> Ask me about our New Dual and 4 Way Blade Servers <-- _______________________________________________ clug-talk mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://clug.ca/mailman/listinfo/clug-talk_clug.ca Mailing List Guidelines (http://clug.ca/ml_guidelines.php) **Please remove these lines when replying
