    Ordered some new stuff

    I just ordered a EVGA Geforce 7600 GT CO, and 2GB OCZ gold PC2 5400, cant wait to get it:) Was quite tough as my mom thought i dont no how to install it, but its pretty eaisy, althogh im not sure about the video card, its dual DVI but i only got one and one smaller one that i dont no what it is.

    EDIT: ok i think it comes with a converter because its like VGA or something like that.

            Keep in mind that if your running a Dell, switching the PSU isn't as easy as you think. Dell's hardware is mainly proprietary including the PSU which have been modified for different voltage and connections. Grabbing a regular PSU from newegg or some place wont work and may actually fry the mobo. If you need more power, call Dell and see if they'll sell you a new PSU.

              Switching my dell psu worked for me. I just had to modify my case a bit to get it to fit in. Most likely the psu won't kill your mobo(unless your stock one is a weird shape)

                  7600GT is a great card! I got the Evga KO edition. Now with an SLI board on the way I may very well purchase another 7600GT and finally have an SLI set up :)
