well the way i see it, for the lack of better knowledge i will estimate that my cpu is sucking about 2times the normal single core power since its dual... so about 150-200w to be on the high side, then i got the vid card around 100w since the fan runs off the card itself. then i got sata hd, dvdrw 3 fans as it is. and ram. mayb 400w is chocking it for real.

so i have decided to upgrade to a bigger more powerful case/psu combo. http://www.bcom.ab.ca/store/product.php?productid=318327&cat=0&page=1 tell me what you think.

also please no topic highjacking. im sorry for your gfx exploding but im trying to keep this on topic. which is to fix my comp b4 something simmilar happens to me Smile

ty

edit: it sounds like this has a better air flow than my case which is pretty old. so i think it might be a solution for both my power and my temp problems.
