I was wondering if a 230 watt PSU has enough power for a MicroATX motherboard and a 1 gig celeron, 512megs of ram? All of the other components are onboard.
Because the board is smaller does that mean less power would be needed?
Its just that I'm thinking of buying a MicroATX case and it has a 230watt PSU in it. Plus most of the MicroATX cases I've seen also have smaller PSU's. I doubt you can upgrade because of the different sizes of the PSU. Is this common, or am I missing somthing? Something doesn't seem quite right.
