on all boxes it pretty much tells you what power supply requirements you need to run the card you get. if you cant read the box and research the card your gonna get, then you deserve to have your stuff burned up.  all i did was recommend a card to fit his situatuion, the rest was up to him, i didnt say for him to go get a 4850 and throw it in his system and see what happens. i suggested a card, that is it. stop your crying just to hear yourself squeak cause its me.

OK.  Let me get this straight.  I know nothing about computers and ask for advice.  You recommend something.  My computer stops working after I follow your advice because what you recommended was somehow incompatible with what I have.

Now, I have a broken computer.  I followed your recommendation.  And I deserve a broken computer for doing so?

I guess that makes perfect sense and should enjoin anyone to any recommendations you give out.

no what i am saying is you shouldnt take anyones word on anything without doing the research for yourself. take what people say with constructive criticism and apply that after knowing all the facts.

i simply stated a 4850 with HDMI out was a good card for the application.

i am hoping he would follow up is he decided to go that route with making sure he has the right PSU to use it. cause it says right on the box the requirements to run the card..


i have noticed in alot of recommendations made to other people by other people in this forum and theres a lot of information left out on how to implement those recommendations.

 Many people offer sound advice on this forum. Some people do not. One rule of thumb I employ is the posters use of grammar. Most IT professionals are competent technical writers, and that is reflected in language usage on the board. I would be wary of following advice from an individual who does not exhibit a rudimentary mastery of the language.
