Hi all, I'm new to upgrading systems myself and I want to put a new graphics card in my old PC. The system will be: 2 sticks of DDR Ram (not ddr2 or 3) 2 160gb S-ata II, 7200rpm HDDs 1 DVD rewriter Pentium 4 cpu @ 3.0ghz 8600gt 512mb Some sort of Shuttle motherboard. So the question is what wattage PSU do you think i'll need? Any help is much appreciated. Thanks.
That's a little vague..if you can tell us which motherboard you have..what your budget is...and what the need for the GPU is...it'l be a lil clearer
