Here's a start ....

AMD XP Family:

Model 6 .......
1500+ = 60.0w max - 53.8w typical
1600+ = 62.8w max - 56.3w typical
1700+ = 64.0w max - 57.4w typical
1800+ = 66.0w max - 59.2w typical
1900+ = 68.0w max - 60.7w typical
2000+ = 70.3w max - 62.5w typical
2100+ = 72.0w max - 64.3w typical

Model 10 .....
2000+ = 60.3w max - 47.4w typical
2200+ = 62.8w max - 49.4w typical
2400+ = 68.3w max - 53.7w typical

great! thanks mate!

My problem is that there are same models with different cores like 1800+ for example. I bet they have different TDPs...

CPU ------- Freq. -- Core ------------ Vcore
========================================
1500+ AXP 1.33GHz Palamino -------- 1.75
1600+ AXP 1.4GHz Palamino -------- 1.75
1600+ AXP 1.4GHz Thoroughbred B -- 1.5
1700+ AXP 1.47GHz Palamino --------- 1.75
1700+ AXP 1.47GHz Thoroughbred A -- 1.65
1700+ AXP 1.47GHz Thoroughbred B -- 1.5
1800+ AXP 1.53GHz Palamino --------- 1.75
1800+ AXP 1.53GHz Thoroughbred A -- 1.65

2500+ AXP 1.83GHz Barton ----------- 1.65
2600+ AXP 2.13GHz Thoroughbred B -- 1.65
2600+ AXP 2.08GHz Thoroughbred B -- 1.65
2600+ AXP 1.91GHz Barton ----------- 1.65

I was thinking that too. Don't know where to look besides the AMD white pages.

The model 6 are all 1.75v, probably Palominos. The type 10 are 1.6v, probably Tbred B cores.

Other than that don't know what to say.

posted in AMD processors section, maybe will get some responcess soon.

I really wouldn't worry about all of these older, out-of-production CPU's, most of the questions concern new builds.

I think there some people that still using them, just don't want them to feel left over I'm even thinking to add Pentimum, Pentium 2, Duron, etc. to the list, but later

Don't go to far back as it will cause confusion,
remember the P3's & earlier used the +5V rail to power the CPU.

good thinking, but my calculator calculates the total wattage which is not separated by rails.

I uderstand that, but you can see the problem of having people come from the PS Calculator saying they need X-watts & ending up with a modern PS with +12V@30A, but also +5V@30A which might not be enough.

The more I think about it, the less of a problem it seems, sorry to have bothered you.

Keep up the GREAT work ,
Dave

I think you are right. Should I remove PIII from the list?

I would, that way they HAVE to post their system specs to get an answer.

But that is just me.

David, how about AMD? Which AMD cpu were using +5V rail?

Early K7's & before.

[mnemonik23]

it is done... ver 1.1 is up and running
please report any bugs that you may find to mnemonik23@yahoo.com

Thanks and enjoy!

A very nice thing man good found basically with 500 to 600 watt psu you can do any thing

[BigPanda]

any calculator the tell u how much amps u need?
i have a lot of lights and a fair amount of fans and wondered if my psu is good enough

[smacko]

hey guys,
i have found a useful tool for measuring psu demand. Its called "KILL A WATT" and is made by P3 International.
Plug it into a receptacle, then plug your computer (or appliance) into it. It will tell you exactly what the watt load of your computer is.
Due to efficiency losses, if you are pulling 400 watts AC at the wall, the DC load of your components will be considerably less. In that case i would think a 400 watt psu would be a good match (provided you get a good 400 watt psu)
i'm using an FSP 400 now instead of my old Antec TC 550, its quieter and more efficient.
You can also calculate the cost of running your computer by the hour, day, month, whatever, by getting your power cost from your electric bill, and mutiplying by your computer's watt draw per hour.

Those first two links are garbage, that calculater and outervision is awesome. Only thing I don't like is they don't list the power usage on each item - it used to be that way. Because of this it's harder to get an exact dial-in due to fans that arn't the same as the listing (eg: their 150mm fan categories come in at 10w/23w, and my 150mm fan uses 19w). I just wish they would put the quick-look Watts back in.

I spam the outervision link whenever possible, because I love it so much.

knock-knock, thanks for the spam!

I Think I'll put back watts per component in Pro version plus amps per rail... maybe

btw, check the new update!

1st one doesn't work, 2nd one is out dated as of june 12, 2006.

Other than that, thnx. I know I need something 400+watts for my next rig.
