    Will the PSU be too weak?

    The PSU should be fine with that CPU and the extra ram but i would upgrade it if your planning on buying an i5 3570k. I would also check first if the Dell inspiron will support that CPU.

    Hi and welcome to PC gaming:D If your interested in overclocking you will need to do some reading on the subject as doing it without any knowledge can damage your components. What are your system specifications including cooling(CPU and case fan configuration)?

I removed one card and am now looking at getting a...
