Power supply info.. Help!!

I am thinking of buying a iMac g4 from powermax.com (authorized reseller) They take UK currency and also ship to the UK (I live in birmingham). I have sat here for hours convincing my self to buy a 1GHZ 17" model... But will it work in the UK? I am fine with buying a UK power cord, But will the iMac blow up (: P) Because of it being 230V.

It'll work fine. It's an auto-switching supply:http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1981
I bought my cloverleaf mains cable from Maplin.

  • POWER SUPPLY info needed for GRAPHICS CARD UPGRADE!!!

    I have a HP PAVILION p6631p and ide like to add a graphics card, but I was told I had to upgrade my power supply.
    The card I purchased is the SAPPHIRE RADEON R7 260X 2GB and I was told I need a 500watt or higher power supply.
    I was looking at the CORSAIR BRAND power supplies and tried emailing them to help me find the right power supply, but they said they needed to know what type of power supplies HP use in this model PC.
    I didnt know what to do so im hoping someone can help me out with this information CORSAIR is asking for so they can help select me the right power supply for my PC.
    I been searching for answers for weeks. Hopefully someone can help. Thanks.
    This question was solved.

    KJonline, welcome to the forum.
    You were told correctly.  You will have to upgrade the power supply unit (PSU) for the video card to work properly.
    The PSU in the computer is a standard ATX.  I suggest measuring the existing PSU and comparing the measurements to the one you choose.
    I normally suggest at least 500W, but 600W is better for future upgrades.  Here is a PSU that should work for you. It is 650W and is an Enthusiast series.  This means that it has all of the power that you will need.  It is 5.9" (W) x  3.4" (H) x 6.3" (L).

    I am in need of a new power supply for my laptop and was wondering which one would be the best.  i believe my options are the 90w smart ac power adapter and the slim power adapter.  any suggestions?

    So what's the issue you're having?

  • Help I think my power supply is going bad! Where can I buy parts?

    I am getting random reboots and it doesn't seem to be the OS... My first guess is the power supply but I can't seem to find one to buy... Does anyone know where I can buy one at?  Is there a good place for parts for the MEGA 180?
    Thanks

    you need to post more information about the problem you're having, before we start pointing the finger at the PSU, which is the one part that is difficult to obtain now
    >> Getting help with random restarts and blue-screens <<
    Post more info on the hardware in your Mega PC, refer to >> Moan Guide <<
    Download Speedfan and use it to measure CPU temps both at idle and under load and post them here. >> How to use Speedfan <<
    Test your memory using >> Memtest86 <<
    The thing is that windows never leaves an error... I get nothing in the event viewer except windows was shutdown error no other errors are listed so I don't think it's windows... I ran a CPU Burn in test for over 24 hours and never had a problem so I don't think it's heat either... And the reboots are quite random I will go two weeks without one and then get them two and three times a day...  To me the power supply seems to be the easiest answer but since there hard to get I guess it's not so easy to check eh...
    I have done the fan mod (Turning it so it sucks in cool air) and I have a slot fan dumping tons of air out the back so I don't think it's a heat problem... I started to have the problem running Windows XP SP2 so I did a complete reload from scratch to Windows Vista (I know not completely supported but it works fine) and am still having the same problem...  I have a Haugpauge 150 pci card, Haugpauge USB2, A usbuirt pluged into usb and thats about it...  2 gigs of ram 2x1gig sticks from Crucial,  yes I have already run a memory check and it passed...
    Is there not anywhere to get a power supply?  Or is there another model that fits the mega 180 case?

  • Power Supply Confusion ...Please Help.

    So I will admit to not being able to understand the couple of guides on this forum concerning choosing a power supply ...they are REALLY wordy with ALOT of info that honestly seems irrelavant while not exactly dealing with how to choose (alot of bias over single vs mutliple rail and preferred brands).  While I aprreciate knowing what PSU's people with money and expereince can afford I am simply trying to find out the minumum so I can choose a little higher rated to maintaining capacitor life.
    I would like to ask if the current power supply I have will be sufficient (for at least a month) to the system Im building for mom.  Here are the components Im working with:
    MSI 880GM-E41 w/HDMI
    AMD PhenomII x2 560 BE (Calisto 3.3 GHz AM3 80w)
    4GB GSkill Ripjaw Series (2x2GB) DDR3 1600 (PC3 12800)
    500GB WD Caviar Blue (7200 rpm)
    CD/DVD -RW (DL) Drive
    DVD ROM
    PSU - PowerUp LP6100D
    DC Output 400w MAX (+5V=30A / +3.3V=28a / -12V=0.8a / +12V=25a / +5V sb=2a / -5V=0.3a)
    Total Output 230w (this is really the only value Im confused over)
    I have another PSU to use as well:
    Tiger Pro LC-B350 ATX
    MAX TOTAL WATTAGE 350W (+5V=35A / +3.3V=28a / -12V=0.8a / +12V=16a / +5V sb=2a / -5V=0.3a)
    (I think this one might hold??)
    At a guess, Im a little under my actual requirements, but Im confused as to whether I have a 400W or 230W PSU.  I have full intention on replacing the PSU but need to know if this one is suficient or if it will cause damage if used for only a month or less. I also understand brands mean alot but at this point am more concerned about sufficient power requirements.
    *** I even tried the calculator available via the link but couldnt find my processor in the selection field.

    Carvetii,
    I wouldn't touch a $20 PSU if someone cut me a million dollar check to do so...well, I might touch it, but I wouldn't ever use it.  The PSU is sold for $20 for a reason...it is made with cheap components.  I hope yours works for you and doesn't have any issues--like take out your whole system.
    MyWonThing,
    What are your plans?  Do you plan on always using onbord video, or are you going to get a discrete VGA in the future?  Do you want a PSU to handle what you have now only or something that you can use in an upgrade, add-in VGA or when you build a newer system?  A Corsair CX400 should be plenty for what you have now, but, for future proofing, depending on your plans, you may want a Corsair CX600 or TX750(or bigger if you plan on a high-end VGA).
    I understand why lower priced parts make people nervous, but I make hardly nothin as a disbaled veteran.  My plans for the described setup are so a 60+ year old can check email, etc.  NOTHING TO MUCH BEYOND THAT.  If I do add a VGA card it will simply be to allow for dual monitor output and will not be chosen for high end graphics capbility.  I dont mind spending as much as $40 for a reliable PSU but again, I get about nothing per month, no overtime ever, and do not have the luxury to choose a high end power supply, nor will this system ever be taxed enough to matter.
    BTW...Price has VERY little to do these days with reliability  .  The current MoBo Im using I got new, for cheaper than most others on the market when obtained and it is not going to be fully retired but used as a *nux set up  , as it still runs like a champ (  OORAH MSI!!!  ).  Its still pretty much a stable board, just time to upgrade for OS compatibilities.  Also, take a look a t the PS3  .  Very expensive (especially at release) yet some of the cheapest components and solder out there were used , and its just gotten cheaper(the parts).  I know some of the components in said console ARE high quality but there is still alot of other crap that the manufacturer simply skimped on  , for whatever reason but none the less, they went with very inferior parts.
    So with all that being said, Im AM NOT concerned about brand.  This is something I will research.  I was confused as to whether I had a 400W or 230W PSU, but Im pretty sure its a 230W (if Im wrong let me know on PSU#1).
    I am more interested in the minimum power rating required for listed set-up.  NOT BRANDS for it.

  • Help! Card Power Supply wanted!

    Dear all,
    My Power Book G3 (bought in 1999) has collapsed. In October 2006 (note, 2 1/2 months ago) I switched it on and felt a bad smell ... a strange noise and after it it was "dead". I took it to the seller (in the meantime they changed a lot their organization) and now they are telling me what follows:
    "The code of the spare part broken is
    Card Power Supply - 661-2029
    Unfortunately it's not possible to submit you an offer for repairing the machine since the part is no more in the Apple catalogue.
    We don't guarantee anyway that even by substituting the part your machine can work again since Power Book G3 is out the Apple Support and therefore it's not possible to check it".
    I've asked them to give me back my G3.
    My idea is
    - to find out if there is a way to find somewhere this Card Power Supply.
    It's not necessary to tell you how much I am affectionate to my "baby".
    Can someone help me?
    Since the machine is still at the Apple Shop I can't tell you for the time being what family it belongs to, anyway as soon as I have it back I'll post other technical info about the model.
    THANK YOU 2K!!!!!!!!

    In the US, " No new parts are available any more" is exactly what Apple would tell you.
    There are other vendors who repair MacBooks and PowerBooks. Used parts are plentiful, since some of these machines die and the remaining good parts are sold.
    This vendor sells used and some new parts, and also has illustrated guides to how to repair.

    I am sure there are vendors in Italy who offer repair services for older PowerBooks. Since the parts are not new, warranties may be only a month or two instead of a year.

  • Power supply fan dead - help? (400mhz AGP G4)

    Hello!
    Unfortunately, my PowerMac G4, a 400mhz, AGP Sawtooth model, has a dead fan.
    Over the last few weeks, I've noticed that my G4 has been running quite hot. I figured it was due to the hot dorm room that it's being used in. Then, I noticed that when it booted up, it would occasionally make a vibrating, or rattling noise - I figured the fan was wobbling. Since air was comming out of the fan opening at the top, I didn't worry about it.
    Today, I used the "Temperature Monitor" widget to check the temperature of my SMART Hard drive (the G4 itself is not sensed). It was 133 degrees!!! This is the bay on the back-right, just under the CPU fan. I looked at the fan again - not much airflow. I pulled out a flashlight and pointed it in, and the Fan that's inside the power supply unit is dead.
    So, how can I fix it? It's far far too hot, so it's not usable until I can cool it off. The first idea I had was to take a particularly powerful desk fan, and make a paper "tube" that connects both to the G4 and back of the fan - so it'll pull the hot air out. Needless to say, this is not a good log-term plan as it's easy to fall apart and will have leaks, but it works for now. I realize you can buy power supplies, but for ~$100, it's far too much for the old G4.
    Second idea: The fan is inside the "non-user servicable" power supply, but it's also next to the back of the G4 - right inside what appears to be a panel that holds the power supply in. At the very least, I'd like to make sure that the cable is attached and not loose, but I have to open the back. Is that possible or safe? If so, can I replace the fan?
    My third idea was to attach an extra fan to the inside of the G4, on the outside of the power supply - pushing in. Unfortunately, the IDE cable from the DVD drive is in the way, and there's not much room for a fan. Plus, there's no fan power supply. Is it possible to convert an ATA power plug (there are 7!) to a fan-power supply? I'd require a small circuit and a lot of resistors, obviously! If so, what would I need to do to convert it?
    Thanks a bunch,
    -Dan
    15" 1.67 Powerbook G4 (Jan 2005), 400 mhz AGP Sawtooth G4   Mac OS X (10.4.8)   4G Clickwheel and 5G Vid iPods, 2G iPod shuffle

    Thanks!
    Interesting, this "Piggy back power adapter" will allow me to plug the fan into one of the ATA/IDE cables? Or do you mean the extra port on the power supply? (it has one plug for the outlet>G4, then another to support something like a monitor or similar) The G4 has a DVD burner, but no ZIP drive, so this is quite do-able if it uses the ATA power.
    When you say "lower rear", do you mean at the bottom? Below the power supply, to the right of the PCI slots? If so, this is the inflow for the CPU fan! I can understand mounting it outside the current outflow-vent for the dead power supply fan, although I'm not sure the best way to proceed with attaching the fan.
    Another question: what tools and supplies will I need? I may need to remove the plastic cover on the back of the G4 - the one that is outside the power supply - as there's a gap between the gray plastic and metal chassis that lets air from outside the machine come in. The screws for this cover use a funky, hexagonal screwdriver. If I need to take this cover off, what kind of screwdriver will I need? Also, should the fan not include screws/etc, what's the best method to attach it? Glue?
    Secondly, to cut a hole in the G4, will I need some variety of drill? I don't have one, so i'll have to borrow one... Since there's nothing in the ZIP slot, I can run a cable out through here (assuming it's long enough), and make a new bezel to keep the airflow inside intact.
    Ah! One other (somewhat related) question: my USB 2 card includes a power adapter, for use when several un-powered devices (flash drives) are attached. It works just fine with a flash drive and a small media reader, but it's slow to sense the drives - I think it's low on power. Unfortunately, this power plug uses the same variety of plug as the floppy disk drives found on many win-boxes - of which the G4 possesses none. Is there an adapter/cable for this purpose?
    Thanks, this is a HUGE help, I appreciate it.

  • Help with using itunes with 4s library after i upgraded to iPhone 5 and computer power supply went

    long story hopefully an easy fix....
    on wensday my power supply went and had to ship computer across country to Puget Computer Systems as we weren't sure if it was power supply or mobo...luckily it was power supply.
    i daily backed up iphone 4s with itunes (10.7) as i do all music manually, playlists, etc. have like 3,000 plus songs, videos, audiobooks, mail aaccts and about 48 apps.
    so next day (sept 19th) apple comes out with iOS 6 which i update my 4s to with no problem. I wanted a day to play with it to learn my way around.
    next day i wait in line for 8 hours overnite and was #2 in line at apple store for my ATT 32gb white iPhone 5. while at apple store I get my icloud backup which gets all paid music,apps, etc since itunes version 10.3 (i always did both backups so as not to lose my contacts more than anything.
    I have other paid stuff that is in library on computer along with audiobooks and about 2700 more songs.
    my icloud backup put the playlists on iPhone but not most of the music for them as lots were ripped from my cd's.as i double them up making a copy on iPhone and a copy on itunes.
    So I have been using iPhone 5 with no problems just don't have all of itunes library on it. My computer is coming back this week how do I plug in iPhone 5 via USB (which will be seen as new phone even though it has same name) and use my existing iTunes 10.7 library which the backups in iTunes still has iOS 5.1.1 on it?
    There must be an easy way of doing it as i don't want to wipe off iphone 5 again as i don't see any purpose my library is all organized perfectly. I know my way around windows 7 pro 64 bit pretty well just don't know what itunes is going to say once it sees "joe's iPhone" again and installs the usb drivers and icon for it. what will it ask in regards to library and how do i use it with previous iOS on it?
    Thank you very much for the help as I am going to need it.
    yes i broke the cardinal rule of cross posting and apoligize  for it just amazed i couldn't find answer via google nor any apple store genius knew it either.

    Hi All,
    Any help?
    No one has any answers here amoungst all this apple knowledge?
    Thank you

  • Need help with power supply & graphics card upgrades

    I have a HP Pavilion p6320y that I bought 8 months ago. AMD Phenom II x4820 Quad Core processor.   I play WoW and since the last big patch, have been suffering with low fps. I updated drivers and followed all the advice given to me by Blizz and finally figured out that my Nvidia GeForce 9100 (integrated graphics) isn't good enough anymore.
    I checked my computer and discovered that I have a 300w power supply (12V) and read on another post here that something stronger than 300w is needed to run a decent graphics card.
    Now for my questions:
    How much of a power supply can I upgrade to without hurting my computer, but will be enough to run a good card?
    What would be a good graphics card for this computer?
    I've been looking at the Nvidia GeForce GTX 460 1GB GDDR5 PCI Express graphics card and wonder if that will work on my computer.  Most of the nicer cards seem to be the PCI Express and I'm not sure if that will work.
    Any advice will be most helpful. I have some experience with the inner workings of my PC and would like to fix this myself instead of running to the closest computer shop and paying someone else to. Thanks!
    This question was solved.
    View Solution.

    Well, you are starting out from a fairly low baseline with the integrated graphics. It will not cost much to have a substantial increase if all you want to do is run WoW without error messages. Yes, the 300w power supply is an issue and rules out any card that will require its own power (i.e. needs its own power cord like a hard drive) but there are several mid-grade cards that can run off bus power alone (i.e. just from the pci-e slot itself). Just taking a quick look at newegg.com I see the following:
    GeForce 9400 under $50
    Radeon HD 4650 under $50
    GeForce 9500GT a little over $50
    Any of these should get you where you want to be and not require a PS upgrade. The slot you have available is a PCI Express x16 slot so don't look at AGP cards; they will not work. If you want to install the card you mention you need to get a better PSU.

  • Need Help with power supply reccomendations for my graphics card

    hi
    i have a MSI GeForce GTX 780 Graphics card... i built my own system, i also got a rosewill rx750 power supply in it which i think is causing me problems, the computer works great until i get into games like titan fall and try and get into a game then it restarts the computer on its own.. has done this with a few games, but it works fine when surfing the net and so forth, i have read its to do with the power supply being week and also read my chosen power supply isnt that good... anyone got any recommendations for me that i should look at or am i looking in the wrong direction with whats wrong with my pc... any help would be great thanks

    yes the PSU is  the most important choice out there and corsair and seasonic are the best out there! (never buy cheap PSU's as like abvolt said a cheap one can easily kill your more expensive parts)
    Cheap PSU = made of the most cheap parts they could get "think cheap shanghai parts are used that may be of any quality good or awful as its just what they could get for the lowest price" (ever bought anything that was super cheap they break very easily)
    Quality PSU = the use of good quality well made parts and will have very good testing done on them to make sure they are stable and pass very tight regulations and conform to specs for 10-30 different factors each.
    a cheap low quality PSU I class as a paper weight as it will never go near a computer (maybe i would use one as a basic bench PSU for things i do not care if they die or just for testing a fan or something that rubbish dirty power is not really a major problem but silicon is not tolerant to dirty power and will kill parts)

  • Help! I need to upgrade my Dell Optiplex GX260 (tower) power supply!

    Hi,
    I plan on taking a trip to Best Buy today to purchase a video card and power supply for my Dell Optiplex GX260 (tower).  I am looking to get at least a 500W power supply.  Can you tell me the BEST power supply that will work/fit that Best Buy sells?  Thanks very much.

    I see that you posted back in March of 2009 so I hope that you haven't already fried a motherboard or PSU while learning the hardway, as I feel that I almost did. We have a Dell GX260 that my daughter wants to play some games on but I found out that the Graphic Card (ATI Radeon 7500 series) was not good enough for the games that she wants to play so I decided to upgrade the graphic card, unfortunately I found out that a lot of newer cards have PCI-Express connectors and not the PCI I need. As well, I found out that most of the PCI cards above what I have need more than the 250Watt power supply that I have. So I thought, why not just upgrade my my PSU and then I found out that Dell actually rewires their PSU differently than the industry standard ATX connectors but I see a lot of post and recommendations from people that say that you can use any store bought PSU to upgrade your Optiplex GX260 but BEWARE that if you bought your system after late 1998 then you have a Dell system that has their own proprietary wiring configuaration and even though you can buy a standard ATX PSU at bestbuy and it will seem to fit properly, it will either fry your new PSU or worse yet, it will fry your motherboard as well.  In fact, I went to bestbuy three days ago and bought a graphic card and the salesman told me that if my PSU was not at least 300Watt, which is what the card required, that I can come back and buy a standard PSU from them and that would fix the problem. The salesman even knew that I had a Dell System so I wonder if BestBuy would be willing to replace my motherboard if I had fried it based on what the bestbuy salesman told me to do???? Anyway, read this link http://www.informit.com/articles/article.aspx?p=339053 and see what you think!!  I am glad I stumbled across the information and plan on upgrading my PSU with a compatible Dell PSU or look for a Dell Converter (if there is such a cable) or just replace both my PSU and Motherboard as directed.  I also think I might actually build my next PC from scratch with all industry standard parts, as I was very ignorant up until now that Dell was doing this to their products and I have 3 of their systems in my house....but no more!!! I did find a Dell compatible PSU 500 Watt on PCPower.com but it comes with SATA drive connectors and my Optiplex GX260 has IDE connectors so I don't know if I can get a SATA to IDE conversion or not but as you can see I am still researching my options. I might actually find it will be cheaper to just buy a new system or build the one of my dreams!!  
    I know I wrote a lot but I hope that this information is helpful to someone else out there who is in the same boat as me.

  • I need help to replace my power supply for the hp pavilion elite m9510f

    This computer has given me many problems since I bought it in '09. From graphic card fan issues, a hard drive crash, and now the power supply has failed.
    I did the blow dryer trick but it still ends up breaking a week later. I want to know what new power supply should I buy. One that will be able to fit in the hp pavilion elite m9510f and is an upgrade to the 350w that it has. Maybe somthing under 60-70 dollars if possible. Thanks for any help.

    It appears to be a normal case and motherboard.  A normal ATX supply should work: http://www.newegg.com/Product/ProductList.aspx?Submit=ENE&N=50001333&IsNodeId=1&Description=Computer...
    Just an example of what is availble, but most any should work as long the physical dimensions match the one installed now.
