Answer» HI,
I'm trying to upgrade my graphics card because my computer intergrated graphics is really bad. I have an packard bell Imedia B2217 UK, however the psu installed is only 115W, however I have a spare PSU that has an output of 450W, my question is will the NEW PSU fry/break with the motherboard or can I just plug it all in?
Yes you can change the PSU,s over, provided that the Packard one is a standard size, as sometimes the FIT CUSTOM size ones in there computers. Nope. The PSU (if its worth anything) sends the right amount of power out for your mobo and peripherals. It shouldn't fry it. A computer with the right power SUPPLY will only use the power [wattage] that is needed. If you have [lets say] a 450 WATT power supply and replace it with a 750 watt you will not have a pblm. More is better
