Re: Compatible PSU

I noticed that my power supply was Bestec ATX 250-12Z REV.H5R brand. Any suggestion what model is compatible usually higher than 250w.

Hi,

 

Go with the Corsair CX500  or CX600 depending on your choice for a video card.  The CX600 is on sale.

 

 

These HP 'how-to" articles should be helpful.

 

Go with the video card recommened by wb2001 if you plan on running BF3.

It's been a month then,thanks for your advice because i already bought your suggestion. I buy Ge Force GT 640 and i'm not too dissappointed. I also upgraded into 600watts Power supply. From a subscore of 3.5 to 7.1 graphic card it tells a lot of difference. So thank you for the advice.

 

I'm planning to upgrade this year is my hard drive(WD Caviar Blue 320gb) and 2GB RAM. Both 5.9 and 5.5 subscore.

 

If it's possible to have WD Caviar Black 1TB and my old hard drive running both to my pc???

I know SSD much faster but i can't afford to buy now. I like WD instead because of its capacity. What would your advice concerning performance on loading game,applications,transfer rate etc., in mechanical drives.

 

Is WD Caviar Black  compatible to my pc? Or theres another type much better?

 

I also want to add buying with is memory card. My pc maximum memory is 2x2Gb only. Max of 4GB only.

My specs are : 

Intel Dual core,Pentium E6700 (Wolfdale) 3.2 GHz (65W), Windows 7 32-Ultimate. Compable of 64-bit windows, 2GB RAM

  • Socket 775,Foxconn EtonL-GL6,  H-IG41-uATX model, Ge Force GT 640. Thanks a lot!!!
