August 23, 200421 yr Hi all, I am planning on upgrading my system very very soon. I need advise at wich mobo to get. I know Im upgrading to an AMD 3400+ CPU (or higher as long as its air cooled since I already have two fans to place on front of tower and two to place in back of tower) and 1 gig memory and most likely a Geforce 6800 Ultra or Radeon X800XT. I have not really read up on computers lately but what a very fast system. Im keeping my CD write drive and DVD drive from my old machine.Thanks,Bill Asus Tuf Gaming Plus B550 - Ryzen 7 5800X3D - Asus GeForce 4080 RTX OC Edition - 64GB DDR4 (3600Mhz) - EVGA 850W Power Supply - 2X 1 TB NVME PCIE gen 4 - Windows 11 (25H2)
August 23, 200421 yr Author Oh yes, what kind of power supply should I need? Im thinking over 420WThanks,Bill Asus Tuf Gaming Plus B550 - Ryzen 7 5800X3D - Asus GeForce 4080 RTX OC Edition - 64GB DDR4 (3600Mhz) - EVGA 850W Power Supply - 2X 1 TB NVME PCIE gen 4 - Windows 11 (25H2)
August 23, 200421 yr As someone correctly pointed out recently on these forums it is not the wattage but the quality of the power supply that counts most. For example I am bulding a new rig wih 380 W power supply but it is ANTEC so it is more than enough. Michael J.http://www.reality-xp.com/community/nr/rsc/rxp-higher.jpg Michael J.
