I have a 10 year old pre-built Gateway (Pentium 4, discrete graphics) that took a dump about a year ago; it was my main workhorse for school, web browsing, and could still run early 21st century games (at 25 fps!).
One afternoon I go to switch the machine on and nothing. I'm almost certain it is the power supply, so what to replace it with?
I think it only has and only needs 350W, maybe even 300W, and I've seen refurbed 350's at Micro Center for about $6 bucks. Any thoughts on those?
If not that I thought about picking up a Corsair CX430 when they are on sale for <$20 at Newegg.
