Title: How much Watts does an A500 PSU have?
Post by: amiga1260 on June 18, 2003, 01:22:07 PM

I just get a 60 Watt Commodore PSU. I bought it from Computercity for 10 Euros.  I wonder how many Watts an A500 PSU has? I only know it's has 4.3 A.

I think it is somewhere in the region of 20-25W.

Watts = Amps * Volts


And the simple answer to the topic:

Not enough :-)

Standard A1200 PSUs are ~25W.  Standard A500 PSUs are ~50W.  Why?  Cost cutting.

How many Watts does an A500 PSU have? 3: Den, Angie and Sharon. (umm.. you probably have to have seen the incredibly depressing soap opera "Eastenders" to get this very bad joke).
