Hay guise. I ordered this stuff like before thanksgiving and it got void cause moms credit card effed up or something, and just now have I gotten around to resubmitting it.

I'm replacing motherboard, PSU, CPU and graphics card.

Motherboard.
Graphics Card.
PSU.
CPU. Out of stock, but it's on notify when there's one available.

By my guess, it'll be ready at least in maybe few weeks.

Dayum. Nice. I need a new graphics card.


LOL  Your motherboard looks like a tiny LEGO build.

Sweet, you're getting better Motherboard and GPU than me. We're getting same Processor though :D!


Your PSU looks...frightful.

I'd say 500-600w, but it might work, if your lucky. Have fun trying to upgrade. Everything else looks sound.

PROTIP: Total wattage isn't the thing that matters the most when choosing a powersupply.

A lower watt PSU from a quality brand (Corsair, Silverstone, Antec) will actually perform better than a PSU from a cheapo manufacturer (too loving many to name).

Amperage and the quality of the power (less interference) provided is more important.

The Corsair 400CX to have plenty of amperage left over for more powerful CPUs or GPUs.

And you help save the environment.

Or something like that.

Yes, higher quality PSU's have higher levels of efficiency (80% - 90%) which means less energy is wasted simply being turned into heat (which causes other problems).

I have 400 W it works fine,

I have 400 W it works fine,
You don't need to give us so much detail about your PC./sarcasm: The lowest form of wit

Im guessing my 1000w PSU was overkill. Oh well.

I like My PSU, wish it came with a sticker I could have stuck to the front. Heck, even my CPU cooler and ram have one (the RAM came with 4)

Depends on the hardware you intend to use. In the case of a budget build, a quality 400 watt PSU does just fine. For a more powerful rig, a greater PSU is needed.

My EVGA Geforce 8600 GT came with two EVGA stickers.

Obviously, I stuck one on my desktop and one on my laptop so when I took my laptop to school all the kids were like "OMG LOL U HAS EVGA?!" "YARLY :D " "No, just kidding. We don't give a stuff, cigarette. /punch"
