Thank you all for your generous reply about my thread

Hi everyone

i would like to thank you all for your quick reply.I would go either with (corsair or enermax).

for COB: i have (colorit) psu 400w.

you recommend me for psu SLI compliant,i don't have motherboard with SLI compliant,i have normal AGP interface.

My motherboard: asus K8Vse deluxe

I opened the case,i need at least 8 molex:
1:dvd rom
1:dvd writer
1:1st hard disk
1:2nd:hard disk
1: for the graphic card
1:extractor fan
2:molex for cooler 2 hard disks
2 molex for 2 90mm fan

As you can see i need a lot of molex plug,this without the IDE cable plug as well.

I think i need 600w.

What do you think?

please psu with agp interface,NOT SLI compliant.

I hope to hear from you soon.as you always do .

Thank you in advance

that is me again

hi everyone

i am how wrote to you before about this graphic card.

I bought this card:sapphire 512 1950 pro agp.

i installed this card yesterday and install the software.

from today i keep getting serious error,and my pc crash,the screen gone black,i have to switch my pc off from the case,and restart it.

When i come back to the destktop and error come up saying:

microsoft windows
The system has recovered from serious error.a log ot the error has been created.

when i click on see help to see the log this the error i can see.

Error report contents
The following files will be included in this error report:

C:\DOCUME~1\habib\LOCALS~1\Temp\WERd4ee.dir00\Mini00\mini020307-01.dmp
C:\DECUME~1\habib\LOCALS~1\Temp\WERd4ee.dir00\sysdata.xml

Everytime i want to play the screen goes so messed(like very high resolution or very low resolution screen)again my pc froze,and again i have to restart it from the case.

none key on the keyboard worked(esc,cancel etc...)


The old graphic card was working so properly,no problem at all.


Can you please tell me what is happening?

do you think the graphic card is faulty(i don't think so) because i can see the screen.i crash randomly.

do you think i have problem with my memory ram.
i have psu 600 watts.

i hope to hear from you very soon.

thank you in advance
