Hi,
I recently built a new machine with the below configuration:
Intel QuadCore Q9550 2.8 GHz, 12 MB L2, 1.3 GHz FSB
Intel DP45SG MotherBoard
Transcend 2GB DDR3 RAM
NVidia GeForce 8400 GS Graphics Card
500 GB Sata HDD
Intex 22" TFT Monito (1680 X 1050 resolution) (I dont know if it matters)
I am quite new to hardware aspects and I didn't know that PSU is an important part. So I didn't do much research into PSUs and bought some cheap PSU (1250 for Cabinet + PSU). Now the system hangs up after running for an hour or so. If I run some graphics intensive program like games or photo editing softwares it hangs in 5 minutes.
So some guy suggested that the problem is with the PSU. Now I am planning to replace it.
Now I am totally confused about which PSU to buy and what wattage and amperage I need.
Please suggest me on this.
Thanks in advance.
