    Is 180 Watt PSU enough for a Duron 750 Mhz ?

    I want to build a small and nice computer in the living room for playing mp3´s only...
    I´m wondering if this PSU is enough for a Micro-ATX ASUS A7V133-VM Socket A 200/266
    on-board graphic and sound.

    I've seen alot of Celeron II's running with PS that low. Duron still put out more heat than the CII's so I would venture it will probably run but I would expect some wierd errors and crashes to surface.

    I say Give it a try.

    Neat unit. should fit well with a stereo system.

    180w seems a little low although it does say it will support P4. A well designed power supply might just make it.

    If you are going to only play MP3s do you really need an A7V133 or can you use cheaper board that might be less demanding on the PSU.

    Why not go for one of their recommended boards that you know will fit and is compatable to the PSU.

    These boards seem to have what you will need.

    Yes I guess so, there is quite a bit of difference in price between the two boards.

    Most of the Micro ATX cases I've see only have 145W PSUs. It's not like you're going to be cramming much into that box anyway, especially with onboard sound and video. And besides, why would they even make a PSU that couldn't power the most basic integrated system? On second thoughts, don't answer that! But a Duron 800 should be more than happy in there.
    If you've got your money for nothing, who cares if the chicks are free!

    Yeahhh but I go for Celeron II 800Mhz 100Mhz fsb for the option to use a AGP/PCI graphic card with TV-out...
    Duron is taken more power, but is faster also I know, but I don´t need so much speed, I´m really into coolnes and this baby is going to have a Papst 8412NGL 80x80x25 19.4cfm 1500rpm +/- 10% 12dBA 4pin
    on the PSU..
    And on the H/S I´m thinking of the Papst 612FL 60x60x15 19cfm 2650rpm +/- 10% 16dBA 3pin
    So this baby can keep it quit when I´m watching TV with my girlfriend
