Hey guys. I'm kinda new at this so give any suggestions that you can please. =)
This is my system:
AMD Opteron 144 @stock speeds w/ stock cooling
1GB Kingston PC-3200 (some dual channel value ram, i forget which one)
Asrock 939 Dual-SATAII
Connect3d Radeon x800GTO
120GB Maxtor 7200rpm 8mb cache
Sound Blaster Live!
NEC 16x DVD burner(ND-3520)
And a few fans
Currently I'm using a 350W power supply. The computer randomly freezes on me and I cant overclock the video card at all w/o crashing. I tried doing the sysprep method with the hard drive when I made my computer but I dont think I did it right. So I'm gonna get a new hard drive(because I dont feel like backing up 80GBs worth of data) and a new power supply. I looked on newegg and saw these. Could someone help me pick one of these or suggest a better one for around the same price please? I'm not sure how many Watts I need or how many amps it should have.
