Power Supply?
« on: April 24, 2012, 08:04:06 AM »
Does anyone have a PSU they're willing to part with? I have a Dell (not small form, large tower, plenty of space), but it only has a 220W PSU. Im hoping to upgrade it from a Radeon 5570 to a 6850.

Does anyone have a 450W or better PSU they can sell? Money is tight for me so 30 bucks max is all I can offer.

I've looked this up and saw that someone with the exact same PC as mine (Dell Optiplex 380) also replaced their PSU but said it had to be an ATX model.

Will look and see what I have when I get off work tonight.

Awesome, got my fingers crossed that you do.
