[SOLVED] My PC Shuts off - Page 2

Also, I have been reading up and many PSU's have duel 12v rails, do I want these ones or can my M/B only handle 1 12V rail into the board?

I really do have no Idea when it comes down to the PSU

either but i prefer the single rail
3hrs 3days 3months 3yrs,it's hard to forcast
you can have 2 identical supplies,one will pack up quickly the other will chug along for years

I was thinking about getting a new Fan aswell, Does it matter which I get. I think my current pc uses a 80MM fan, could I just fit a new 120mm fan with no issues? Or must it also be 80mm?

Also, I will be getting the PSU you recommended.

do you have the screw holes for a 120mm

I have just check my PC, and unfortunately I do not. There is however space for another fan on the front of my computer, but with only 1 connector one the motherboard, I doubt I will be able to hook another up.

Can you reccommend a good one for me please? I have been looking around, and they all seem pretty similar to me.

New PSU arrived today, will give it a week, if all if well. I shall post and you can mark as solved :)

Have had it running, pretty much 12 hours a day, not had a single fault with it switching off.

All seems to be fixed, can be changed to solved.
