    Hi. Ok i currently have a 180 watt power supply and its powering a 128 Radeon 9800 Pro, 512 DDR Ram, and 120 gb hd, and all the other accessories. Should i buy a new power supply?

    Just maken sure here mastertech, don't dell mobos/psu's use special plugs or something? Also, his is a dell, dell makes really good PSU's, you could get dell to upgrade it to a 300w+ dell one, that would be good, and probably cheaper. I'm not sure if they let you buy ones from them tho, so, meh.

    Edit: Just opened my baby up and its really 170w ................ lol. I've never upgraded my PSU before so some suggestions on what to buy would be great.
