Hellp everyone! I just joined, and I need help. Two or three years ago, I bought a Dell XPS 400, half a year later upgraded to an nVidia 7600 GT card, and was told at an electronics store that the XPS case makes a PSU upgrade nearly impossible. I've checked on this forum and others, and could not find a PSU that would work with my configuration. So, I was thinking that I could go out and buy a cheap case, transfer the guts of my system into that one, and in the process swap out my old PSU (375 Watts) and video card (for something that runs DX10 and Crysis, hopefully. I really don't know if this is possible, and if it's not, I'd appreciate any other advice that you think would boost my system performance. So, I'll put up my specs. Thanks to anyone who can give me a hand with this predicament.
