Man if only the power supply companys did as good a
PR job as the CPU companys have!
I am not harrassing you by the way :) been here myself!!!!
The power supply is the most overlooked important feature ignored by puter parts buyers
I would strongly suggest you buy a minimum 450 watt NAME brand power supply and a good one Antec or Enermax 550 watt is even better
a good power supply is $100.00
The new systems are EXTREME power hogs / and worse than that / if they dont get the right constant juice they will burn a cpu and gfx card to toast from low voltage resistance
the poor quality PSU dont put out what they say they do and they are erratic in the constant stable power dept. You need about 60% more wattage than your system specs "seem" to call for / this is because you dotn want to be holding the pedal to the floor on your PSU all the time its running.
If we only knew the vital role the power supply plays in todays systems !!!!!!
hope this helps ya
