ANTEC ISK300-65's hidden PSU Spec

Well I just found this interesting post on the A6-3500 ..... how many watts it uses..... Now I am thinking just to be safe I am going to order a 120w brick.....

Just to be safe...... awesome....

We ran the AMD A6 3500 APU both with and without a dedicated graphics card. Without one (using the internal IGP) the PC idles at only 38 Watts, which is respectable. When we place load on the CPU and we see the power draw rise the system now consumes roughly 85 Watts. This is with merely an SSD and 8GB memory installed. Your average PC will draw a little more power if you add optical drives, HDDs, soundcards etc.

When we put a dedicated graphics card (above chart) into the PC (GeForce GTX 580) our IDLE power consumption immediately increases towards 93 Watts. And once we stress the CPU cores of the APU we get a 139 Watt power draw.

I want to make it very clear that power consumption measurements will differ per PC and setup. Your attached components use power but your motherboard can also have additional ICs installed like audio controller, LUCID chips, network controllers, extra SATA controllers, extra USB controllers, and so on. These parts all consume power.

Yes will see how it goes.
The brick was rated @ 90 and the internal DC board is 80w I believe, will see if it works (I do have a kill-a-watt to measure), if not I'll probably get a 300-65 with a 3rd party brick too.

Take a look at my build..... I think it will interest you.... it looks like the A6-3500 at full load will go to 85W..... so I just bought a 120W brick just to be safe....
But I will love to know what your kill a watt tool says....

im sure it'll work waver...

Yes everything is here except the Shuriken 2....

will assembly with amd stock hs after dinner

oh, thought you went for the ISK110...
hope the SHURIKEN fits.
Keep us up2date!
Dont forget to pop out some pics

EDIT
---------
if SHURIKEN doesnt fit,
remove its 120mm FAN,
and use ISK100's FAN for cooling...

waver123 you gave me a Bon3r wait... lol Please post you killa watt numbers..... use Prime95 to test it and also just watching a 1080p vid see what you get,,

man, case aside, you guys bought the same hardware

waver123, can u look at the PSU inside the ISK100 case please?

do you see something like this written on it??



but instead saying MD-80 or MD-90??

thx
