yea, thats what i wanted, a while ago i had to take it to a shop, the charged me 100$ for a 20$ psu and i was meaning to replace it... but honestly, i had no money to do that... not sure what the psu was but i do believe off brand, im going to get in contact with them, to see what kind of warranty there its on the psu and motherboard, as i know motherboard is covered under one still.
955be cpu
3gb ddr2
hd 5770 gou
and an asus motherboard
3 hdds
if the motherboard completely died and i cant get a replacement, it will be out of pocket, id be buying 1 component at a time trying to figure out what what is salvageable.
i just want to know ahead of time, instead of in a few weeks from now if dead components will damage the new ones, if they would id be considering taking it back to the shop that skimped, but i will be screwed over on price again.
