Do I need a new power supply? read...
Yes, I think so, get a 400 watt supply if you want to drive with the
GeforceFX5600 card. It demands much power, and plus the CPU. "jean-françois frappier" skrev i meddelandet ... Hi, First I have a 300 W power supply on a PC Systemboard motherboard with a SiS 645 rev 0 chipset.My cpu is 1.7 GHz with 300 FSB. I have a 512 Meg of ECC ram.I used to have a GeForce 4 MX 440 with 128 ddr ram. The problem is that monday I bought a Asus GeForce FX 5600 and installed it with ALL the LATEST drivers.I even upgrade my BIOS and AGP drivers. And each time I started a game like Quake 3 or unreal tournament 2003; the computer REBOOT!!! So I disable hardware acceleration so I can use my comp to browse the internet and things like that but I cannot run anything with openGL or Direct3D. And even sometimes after I log on windows (XP pro up-to-date), when my antivirus boot on start-up(Viruscan 7.0) the computer reboot(about 5% of the time or less). And I must tell you that I didnt have any one of these problems before. Dont hesitate to comment.. P.S. I did contact Asus technical support and they told me that the problem must that my AGP drivers werent up-to-date (they are) Jean-François Frappier |
