Upgrade my FSP250-60Gen Power Supply

[Muzzzzzzza]

Hello,

Can you advise me on a a suitable 400watt plus upgrade for my FSP250-60Gen Power Supply. I have a Packard Bell iMedia 1529 with a Gagabyte Rio GA-8TRC410MNF-RH motherboard. I have increased the RAM to 4Gb and have bought a Radeon HD 5450 graphics card which wont work due to poor wattage on 12V rail. I need to be sure PSU screws will line up and it will fit in the tower, if someone can help that would be great?

cheers Muzzzzzzza

Hi o1die,

Thanks for getting back and I have checked out your suggestion, Im in th UK and looking at going for a

OCZ 600W ModXStream Pro Power Supply

would that be ok with my MB? I dont know if upping the wattage will fry the MB?

Thanks for your help.

Connectors:
1* 20-pin mainboards connector + 4-pin (for 24/pin mainboard connector).
1* 4-pin CPU
1* 6-pin
4* 4-pin peripheral (Molex)

Ocz 400w with 135mm fan is what I use with my sempron and onboard video. It's very quiet and has worked fine with several boards. 4 pin connectors will work in most 8 pin boards with single or dual core cpus; use the full 8 pins with quads or when overclocking.
