System Type: ¹

Attention: Dual or Quad Sockets means you have more than one
physical CPU (AMD 4x4 for example, or server board with 2 or more processors).

Motherboard:

In case of No ATX +12V board +5V rail will be used
to generate CPU voltage (Socket A and Socket 423).

The total PSU Wattage this tool recommends will give a general idea of the range of continuously available power (not peak power) at which you should be looking. But if you are planning to build a high end gaming system, total Amperage available on the +12V rails—and how that capacity is distributed—could be as or more important than total Watts of power.

So once you have established the likely power needs of your system, please make sure that any PSU you buy will provide sufficient Amps of current on the various rails for all of your devices, and that it will have the proven reliability, service and support you deserve.

Recommended PSU Wattage: ^* Power Supply Wattage Results

¹		System Type: Based on physical processor(s). Multicore CPU counts as a single processor.

²		TDP - Thermal Design Power.

³		System Load: 100% (peak load) - all components are at 100% load, including start up surge current compensation.

⁴		Electrolytic capacitor aging. When used heavily or over an extended period of time (1+ years) a PSU will slowly lose some of its initial wattage capacity. We recommend you add 20% if you plan to keep your PSU for more than 1 year, or 25-30% for 24/7 usage and 1+ years.
