Thankyou.

I had to replace my PSU:




But I couldn't fit all the wires in :/

MODULAR PSUs FTW

[Jamesy]

yeah, that one went bang though. Stuck on a gefore GO5600 for a week 0.0

Modular PSUs have failed me if I use that computer for gaming.
If it's a gaming or really mega high spec PC, the general rule is that you need a massive PSU which wont go bang... Of course, I stuck a modular PSU in my gaming rig and broke about £1,000 of equipment...

So I switched to Mac.

Will post pics tomorrow now that the cameras finally here.

Actually most gamers use modular PSUs that aren't cheap ones. I paid around £80 for my modular PSU.

This was a nice decent spec (650 watt) antec. I don't mind about the wires since my case is too small to fit any amount of wires in (theres like an inch gap between the DVD drive and the PSU.

It was an unexpected cost, my old one fried luckily without damaging anything, but now I have to use more christmas money than I would have liked to by a new case and motherboard.

It's a slow upgrade cycle

The fact it was modular makes no difference. It's only detachable wires lol.

Yeah, I meant that you can have a big PSU if you have a big/gaming case. Like what Dave does.

Dave has to post his wire mess!
