Replacement of psu

[bearymoobeast]

My iso 400pp has doed so I need a suitable replacement....any ideas???

How about another iso 400pp PSU?

What make and model do you have now?

 

[WR2]

Or maybe not. Doesn't look like a quality PSU.
It's a standard ATX PSU.


How much do you want to spend on a PSU?
And what do you need to power? What motherboard do you have?

 

[bearymoobeast]

ooooh um the least amount necessary for a good one............how do i find out what mother board i have?

 

[WR2]

If you know the make and model of the computer we can probably look it up for you.

Otherwise, run CPU-z utility program.
www.cpuid.com/softwares/cpu-z.html

The Mainboard tab will have the info we need on your motherboard.

its Ei system 307....does that help?

 

[WR2]

Not really.

Foxconn 45GM/45CM this?

 

[bearymoobeast]

bloomin pc is driving me nuts now :-(

 

[bearymoobeast]

I dont even know who to ask about this.......pc world is useless

 

[WR2]

Foxconn 45GM/45CM is your motherboard.

PCWorld has Antec Earthwatts 430w which I know is a good reliable model.
Corsair Builder Series CX430 V2 would also be a decent option if you know a store that carries them.

FYI - Antec Earthwatts models don't come with the power cord to the AC wall socket.
(it's 'earth friendly' to recycle the power cord from your old PSU)
