A. Pirate Posted March 6, 2014 Posted March 6, 2014 Now dont i have to make sure that the size of the new power supply is the same as the old? They're universally sized. Some will be shorter or longer than others, but all of them should fit your case with no issues Quote
Thundercats Posted March 6, 2014 Author Posted March 6, 2014 okay i order the PS now working on the Vid Card. Thanks for all your help Quote
Thundercats Posted March 6, 2014 Author Posted March 6, 2014 Okay which would be the better of these 2 http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814121841 http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814150695 Quote
SiD Posted March 6, 2014 Posted March 6, 2014 Still learnin' but it looks like the Xfx may be the better card Quote
ZeZombie Posted March 6, 2014 Posted March 6, 2014 The 260X is the better card by a small margin. But the Asus card definitely has the better cooler on it. Buuuut then again the XFX comes with 2 games. Choose one and compromise Quote
Thundercats Posted March 6, 2014 Author Posted March 6, 2014 But definitely better than what I have right Quote
Midnight Posted March 6, 2014 Posted March 6, 2014 I'd go with the XFX. Either card is better then what you have now, but the XFX has more GB and Specs. I hate saying it, cuz my laptop is ASUS and I just know it's going to know I wrote this. Quote
ZeZombie Posted March 7, 2014 Posted March 7, 2014 Congrats TC! I expect, no, DEMAND pics when you're doing the upgrades! Quote
Thundercats Posted March 12, 2014 Author Posted March 12, 2014 Okay maybe I should have asked this question before I bought the power supply. The fan is on the top does that mean I have to have an opening on the top of my computer? I am new to all of this Quote
A. Pirate Posted March 12, 2014 Posted March 12, 2014 That fan should point to the open side of the case. If it mounts in the top of your case, then the fan points downwards. If it's mounted on the bottom of your case, point the fan upwards. Quote
Thundercats Posted March 12, 2014 Author Posted March 12, 2014 oh thank god!!!! I was like WTF. Do i cut a hole in the of my computer. 1 Quote
Thundercats Posted March 13, 2014 Author Posted March 13, 2014 ALL DONE!!!! Freaked out a little bit because there was no 4 prong with the power supply so had to figure that out. But I guess you us a 8 prong. WTF. There's 10 cables in there they could have just put a 4. Quote
A. Pirate Posted March 13, 2014 Posted March 13, 2014 Congrats! Now, go enjoy everything that is awesome Quote
