Suggested EPS Power supply for Tyan Mobo?

[stevecullum]

I need to find an EPS power supply unit for a Tyan Mobo KW8E (2877) and I'm having trouble finding the correct type I need. I know its meant to be EPS, but there seems to be variations on this. I need one with ATX + 8 pins.

Any suggestions?

True Power 1000 watt, Is what I have for my Tyan K8WE, It's what Tyan requires..

I did some research and alot of people recommend the Tagan 480w. In fact its what some pre-built dual cpu workstations from XFS are using. So I figured if its good enough for them then for me too!

I've only got one HDD and one GFX card, and not so many USB devices, so I think it should handle everything ok.

1000w in your system! - what you running with that - your local town!!:D

a 600W should be be fine. Make sure its PCI conpatable.

I really think u should go to TYAN's web site and look at there required power supplies for that MotherBoard...they list the appropriate power supply, don't guess which one u need they have a good list of power supplies that the motherboard requires...Tyan Motherboards require allot of power...
