Solve : Power supply units? |
|
Answer» OK you guys have been wonderful to me in the past. Now i'm back with probably a stupid question. I have to upgrade my power supply before I can install a new graphics card. Found a nice 450 watt thing. Says it's SATA supported. I have googled the *%$# for sata vs. IDE. I have an IDE. ( i should have bought an apple), Never did i think i would have to spend so much time just TRYING to update my darned computer. IF i don't have SATA on my system, and i have no idea how to tell except i ran a check and everything says IDE on it, will i fry my mother board? Please dumb it down. thanks. Cheriewintermoon... could you post a link to the psu you have found ? I would think its telling you that it will have output (s) for SATA ......... If its a ATX power supply it should be just fine ...unless you have a computer that requires a propriotory psu dl65 wintermoon... Would you happen to know what motherboard you have ? dl65 http://www.tigerdirect.com/applications/SearchTools/item-details.asp?EdpNo=5414 36&Sku=D15-1000 I have an AMD Sempron 3500+ 1 gig Ram 160 G hd Radeon PCI xpress 200 256 DDR it's a compaq presario 1750 NX with upgrades sheesh i love you guys. wintermoon ....
