Im giving her a Z77 motherboard I have laying around and going to pair it with an i2500K. I know its overkill but I have all the components except for the cpu and power supply. Would this Antec 400 power this system ok? Will be using the onboard video on motherboard. »www.newegg.com/Product/Product.a···-371-029 Its on sale for $29.99 and antec is a good name. Reviews are ok but is the 400W sufficient? Thanks

In return you get ONE 6+2Pin PCI-E and is a 80 PLUS Bronze Certified efficiency.
