Sorry if you find this post weird or a nonsense...
I just bought a HP desktop weeks ago and it comes with a warranty of one year. However, I am not satisfy with the graphic card (Ati HD4350) installed from its factory. Hence, I intended to buy a better graphic card yesterday. Unfortunately to my dismay, I ended up buying a 500w Silverstone Power supply. Reason: 300 watt is too low for mid range 400w card.
Just hours ago, I had replaced the power supply. My PC is running fine now, but I cannot predict what will happen in few days time. The longer it stays in my PC the more I feel uneasy..All for the fear that the pc will crash due to power failure & etc. .
Therefore, I really need honest opinions (what you will do if you were me?) here to know whether I have made the right or wrong decision. Is it worth the risk to change the power supply now since the warranty is still in effect??
If I did make a wrong move,i believe it will not be too late for me to change the original PSU back and play games on PS3.. I won't mind wasting the money and put the psu aside..
For your info, I just want to play newer games that are more PC friendly.
Thanks, all opinions are welcome.
