Hi, I am thinking about upgrading my HP Pavilion p7-1067c (http://h20000.www2.hp.com/bizsupport/TechSupport/Document.jsp?objectID=c02853749&prodSeriesId=5080737) with a better graphics card and PSU. When I tried to do this about two years ago, I called the support center to see if I could upgrade and they said that the motherboard would not support more power. Looking back on this now, it really makes no sense, but maybe to someone here it does.
The question is: Can I upgrade my PSU and graphics card without breaking/frying my motherboard?
