Okay, so I upgraded my system last week to get more ram- 768mb ddr333 on my P4S533 compared to the 256mb I had before.
I'm having massive problems now, like random reboots while playing games, and warcraft 3 crashing with memory read errors.
Seems to me my cheap no-name 300W PSU that came with my case is done for.
Idle, while typing this post, these are my voltages:
+12V: 11.84
+5V: 5.08V
+3.3V: 3.088V
VCore: 1.552 (remember the asus overvolting tradition)
It seems to me I definately need a new PSU, but if anyone thinks otherwise, do let me know.
I'm considering either an Enermax 350W or an Enermax 450W. Price is a major object, so I'm basically trying to determine if the 350 would be enough or not.
I've got:
ASUS P4S533
P4 1.8A @ 2.4
768MB DDR333 CAS2.5 (256 + 512)
WD800JB
Two optical drives, cdrom + old 8x burner
GF4 Ti4200-128 @ 275/550
no PCI cards
I'm hoping to get a future proof solution. Do I need to spring the cash for the 450W?
