Umm guess I should say that I was trying to power 3 HD's 2 CD/DVD devices and a GF4 video card and 3 fans other than the CPU and Video fans. Anyway, the reason I posted is because my symptoms were so strange and random that it was hard to Trouble Shoot. [ 07-14-2002, 12:53 AM: Message edited by: MagiK ] |

Thanks MagiK for the information. I almost bought a 400 Watt box, but a friend of mine told me that for what I am running, 300 Watts would do fine. It was a matter of about $50.00, and I had already spent too much money, so I went the cheap way. I am already in so much debt that I can feel every penny hit me hard now!
Oh..and I was not trying to make anyone jealous on this forum...I was just letting everybody know that I have at least caught up to the rest of you, since I was doing a P3 450 for the past 3 years. On another note...do any of you think that I can build this thing on my own, or should I have my friend do it? |

As for the Power Supply, you can always change it out for a bigger one later [img]smile.gif[/img] they come out real easy and are pretty standardized. [ 07-15-2002, 10:22 AM: Message edited by: MagiK ] |

I think I can build my own PC... you can do yours...
I agree with Magik too... I learned through tinkering with my PC... and now I know which is which and it is fun knowing what you need in the near future... |
