    Cool opus 90W questions

    ok, i was thinking of ordering an opus 90W psu, i was wondering if it will power my devices, heres what ive got --- and i have done the psu calcs, and i have searched, i just want some one to give a simple answer that will help me.. not just "search the forums"

    ------------------
    Via M10000 mobo
    512 MB ram
    60 gig WD Harddrive (out of a desktop comptuer)
    full size dvd-drive
    USB:
    GPS
    WIFI
    and the lilput touchscreen... if it draws power

    and i think i will just run my 8" lilput off of a relay controlled by the psu


    do you guys think this will work fine.

    Thanks,
    ~Matt

    With that setup you should draw a maximum of 80W. Get the 150W version, maybe you'll add something in the future.

    I agree with Chris while you can run that on the 90watt, I think it would be a better idea to spend the difference and get the 150w

    1. I will put less stress on the psu becuase you will not be running as close to full load.

    2. If you change you mind on your settup for verison 2 of your carputer you might not have to buy another opus. Many here have been down that road.
