      Default Upgrade problems, please help!!

      Hi

      Just upgraded to a AMD 3200 and a Radeon 9800XT but when i go to start a game my computers power goes dead!

      I am running a 440W PSU, i think this is the problem but not sure!

      which PSU is the best to get if it is the PSU that is the problem!!

      Cheers

      Try reseating your cards/RAM. If they're not 100% they can cause your PC to reboot randomly and stuff.

      440W should be more than enough. From the specs a 350w would be able to cope.

      Ok well it was the PSU!

      Everything is all gravy now, i would highly reccommend the graphics card to anyone! Playing all my games with 6x AA with no lag at all!

      Cheers
