Re: compatable hardware
Yes everything is fun, except the PSU.
Never buy generic brand psu's (Cheap quality ones) Buy decent brands such as Corsair, Thermaltake, Tagan, OCZ, Silverstone, CoolerMaster and other discret brands. Avoid brands like USICASE, Rosewill and any other names that sound fishy. |

Re: compatable hardware
Yeah i took my computer to a local technician and he said the psu was faulty...I seriously thought i would not have any troubles with it though because I read many reviews and everyone said its a great psu. I've now purchased an ocz psu should be here in a couple of days.
Also...do you think it would be possible to run dual graphics cards? or is that overkill...i have no idea what im doing haha  Chef |

Re: compatable hardware
As long as you have 650 watts + of power (and from the upcoming PSU you ordered) then yes you would be able to power another 9600GT or 9800GT.
