[mythtv-users] NForce2 PSU and Motherboard Poll

Just a question of personal interest.  Of those of you running an 
NForce2 based myth system that is stable:

	a) how big is your power supply unit ?  What make is it ?
	b) does your motherboard have the newer separate 12V connector ?
	   What model is it ?

The general advice is a 300-350W Power Supply for Athlon XPs.  Is this 
what people are doing ?

My mythbackend is currently running:

	old PC Power & Cooling Deluxe ATX 450W with fan modifications
	ECS N2U400A/Sempron 2800 with 12V CPU Connector
	Kernel 2.4.27

I got a good deal with the mb at Fry's :D  I'm also a bit paranoid and 
have my mythbox sitting behind a UPS.  Anybody else taking this kind of 
precaution ?

Yan
