Power Supply Concerns

[Vicious38]

Well, if you like at the computer in my Signature, thats what I'm working on now, I have a few concerns however. My Power Supply is PC Power and Cooling 510w ATX-Deluxe, now my questions are; one is if this Power Supply can handle something like this, I know about PC Power and Cooling's Quality however I'm still concerned. Also, how many devices is it safe to connect to one PSU Molex Connector? Stacking the Molex one after another. So far I have 4 on one, and 4 on the other. These are just for my Sound Card, Fans, and LED. I gave the HDD and Optical Drives there own Connectors to be safe. Will this many devices on single connectors be safe? Or will it cause an Overload?

Yes that power supply will handle things just fine. The rule of thumb I use is that I only split a connector once. IMHO, you have that one connect split too much.

Only problem is I don't have enough Molex Connectors, If I could I'd give each Fan, and Hardware there own Connector. Seeing How I only have two besides the ones I use on the Harddrive and Optical Devices.

Your fans and LEDs take very little power compared to a even a single hard drive. Unless your devices are pulling multiple amps each, you won't get anywhere close to overloading anything.

Your fine. Those devices aren't pulling any real juice. I'd just avoid putting too many optical drives on one molex.
