My PCis mostly used for burning dvds (money on the side
) and video edditing i also do play a few games on it, but am not the serious gamer. But the biggest problem is using the autocad software if i have any object with more then bout 1000+ verticies it begins to get incredibly slow.
Anyways though i took warrioscot's advice and did a little research i found all the pecs on the mobo. Also like most people are saying my psu is way to small i used a watt calculator and i am currently running about 10 watts over
so im still thinking of gettin the x connect 500watt and the case that comes with it great deal! at least in my opinion.
anyways heres the stats i found for my mobo
* note---it supports up to 4gb of ram no problems there
*second note--- ya my computer is pretty new bout 2 months (one of the reasons my fundings kind of loww...)
