Hi getting a HD3850 for a HP OEM machine and has
PCI-e slot
But does not have
PCI-e power connector
the PSU itself is only the cheap OEM 300W unit
and powers a
MATX Board
Pentium D 820 (think <it's running at 2.8GHz>)
2x 512MB Ram
7200RPM SATA drive
A weird usb Drive bay thing (you put a Propriety USB HDD in the slot at the front.
PCI 56K Modem (gonna take this out as they have Broadband)
So is 300W good enough? My instinct is to supply a 500W Seasonic, Antec etc but that push the cost up so the customers kid wont be playing Call of duty 4 this year
The PSU will also need a Molex-PCIe connector so are they any good? I hate adapters!
Also will COD4 need 2GB?
