Exclamation Power Supply Help

HELLO,
I am building a new PC and have a A8n-SLI SE motherboard and was wondering if a PC CASE with specifications of:

20/24 pin motherboard power connector
4 pin motherboard power connector
4 pin 3.5"/5.25" power connector
SATA power connector
Floppy power connector

WOULD WORK WITHOUT ANY PROBLEMS

THANKS
TARLETON

The power rating is important. How many of each different connector there are.
It depends on how far you are going to expand the system.

In any case, don't go for a rock bottom price PSU. It will end in tears.

My favourites at the moment are the corsair HX, if you want modular cables:

Or
the Antec TruePower Trio, if you want captive cables:
http://www.antec.com/uk/productDetails.php?ProdID=07656

Both are SLI certified by Nvidia, come with a Five year warranty and are originally by Seasonic. One of the best PSU companies in the world.

Check a few PSU reviews to get a better idea what's out there and make an informed choice, though any of the above will serve you well.
