Should i stop using this power supply??

ok i know that i asked toooo much about my pc but forgive me i am sorry
i searched for new Power suplly but the best is only 400 watt (+12---15a)
so. should i use my one tell get an other or stop tell buy new one . is there any danger on my pc from using this week psu
thanks
my pc spec:
pro:p4 3.2 1mb cash fsb 800
board: Msi 865 PE NEO2 P SERIES
VGA : HERCULES RADEON 8500
SOUND : CREATIVE LIVE
POWER SUPLY : 300W
+3.3V 12A
+12V 12A
-12V 0.5A
+5V 22A
-5V 0.5A

Let me repeat this one last time.
You current PSU is too weak with only 300watts to spare and only 12A on +12v for a Prescott system. That's not the end. I've told you that a minimum of 18A ~ 20A is needed for any Prescott system and still you choose this 400watts with only 15A. This 15A on +12v PSU will not help out much nor long enough even if it can struggle for a few months, period at times.
Get something like Antec 430watts TruePower or Enermax 465watts or above PSU that has met the requirements of a Power Hunger Prescott.
Right now you situation is like trying to ask a person who's already starving from hunger to take 1 piece of bread per day and later told him that he can have a cup of water to go with the bread which isn't enough to kill the hunger as he needs more than what is provided.

Will this power supply work for this tower?

I plan on getting this computer

I feel like everything on the computer is adequate but the power supply is only 300W. I need more than this so I plan on using this power supply to upgrade it.
POWERSUPPLY
Can anyone tell me if this powersupply will fit and perform with the desktop I listed. Also if it does not, is there any suggestions as to what similar Watt power supply will work?
Thanks

Unless, for some reason, Asus didn't use the ATX form factor for that case, that power supply should work fine.
Unless you are upgrading other parts, hockey's concerns aren't warranted. A power supply that is "too big" is never a problem, it's actually better for the power supply because it runs at a lower load. And, the rails on that ThermalTake can manage higher amps than the stock one can, guaranteed.
It's tough to max out a 850watt PSU in a mid-size tower like that.

Is this Power supply suffiecent for my system?

Hi, Is this PSU powerful enough to run my computer? SILENT PUREPOWER SERIES TT-420AD, 420WATT POWER SUPPLY, +3.3V@30A;+5V@40A;[email protected];+12V@18A;[email protected];+5VSB@2A. My computers specs are as follows: AMD athlon 2700XP, 2xVdata 512mb pc3200, ATI Radeon 9700pro, Seagate SATA 80GB hardrive, Hitachi DVD ROM drive, floppy drive, MSI KT6 Delta FISR. I want to know whether this power supply will have enough power to run my setup as I brought an ICUTE 400watt power supply that couldn't manage(no doubt cause its a cheap peice of sh*t) but since Thermaltake is a decent brand I'm thinking it should manage but I just want to be sure. Cheers

That PSU will support your configuration and then some. I have several TT Silent PurePower 420W in service - no complaints. Dual-fan PSU of good construction. Whenever Newegg puts that PSU on sale for $36.99 with free shipping (regular $42.00 plus shipping), I jump on it.
+3.3V and +5V are not a problem, you would be hard pressed to build a system that can place a combined load greater than 170W on +3.3V and +5V, even if you tried. Your system power needs on +12V rail will be (MAX LOAD):
MSI KT6 Delta FISR = .5A
Athlon 2700XP = 7.2A (AMD Datasheet)
2x V-DATA 512MB PC3200 - N/A
ATI Radeon 9700PRO = 1A (see: O/C Radeon 9800 Pro)
Seagate SATA 80GB = 2.8A
Hitachi DVD ROM = 1.5A
CPU FAN = .25A
2x CASE FAN = .5A
Max Total = 14A (rounded to the next ampere)
Edit: I should point out that 14A is the load expected if all these components are simultaneously placing their MAX load on the +12V, a condition that is virtually impossible to reproduce outside of a test lab. For instance, HDD and CD/DVD drives generate max load during disk spin-up, thereafter demanding much less current for read/write/seek operations (approx. 1A). Same with cooling fans.
A real world 'continuous' consumption figure would be in the neighborhood of 10A.

JCGood1984, welcome to the forum.
The computer should take a standard ATX power supply unit (PSU). I suggest measuring the existing PSU and compare the measurements to the one in the links. If the measurements are the same, it should fit. I don't know anything about the brand, however.

Using ThinkPad Power Supply

I have an S10 (and really like it a lot). The input states 20v 2.0A. I have a mess of power supplies lying around for TP R51 which output 16v 4.5A. Would it be ill-advised to use said power supply?
Thanks.

Hi, not only have the S10e, ive own an TP X32 too , i try the psu it works 16V x 4,5 72W , 20V x 2A 40W
...when you accidently change the psu plugs...it cant be damaged your S10 is the quintessence...
takes only the power that S10 needs...not what psu possible gaves output.....

Imac G5, Can I use a power supply from a G4 Q-silver (rewired connector)?

I've got a G5 Imac with a blown PS, and I'm thinking of modifying a G4 Quicksilver power supply for use as the power source for a 20" Imac G5. Yeah, I know it sounds a bit weird, but hey, I was given this Imac G5 (1st Gen. 1.8GHz) for free. It's missing the back cover, and the PS is shot. So if I blow it up it no major loss. It's a project!
I have determined that the original PS is shot and needs to be replaced. I don't really want to drop $140 for a replacement PS, as I would also have purchase the back cover for another $40 + shipping. Go figure, right? It appears that most of those power suppies tend to fail early, anyway.
During my checks of the Imac internals, I also noted that during the "power on" tests, using the old power supply, I would get the second indicator light on the motherboard to flash for just a moment. According to Apple, this indicates that the motherboard is probably good, and that the power supply is bad as it's only providing a momentary voltage spike during the start up faze, before the power drains from the PS. Then it quits. So I thought, is it possible to use the QS power supply, only modifying (rewire) the main 22 pin connector voltages so they match the Imac's pinout? Both connectors are 22 pin and most of the pinout voltages match up the same. There would appear to be only two major connectors that would need to be rewired. So can I use a modified QS power supply to power my Imac?
A couple of extra notes about this Imac:
1) There is no back or stand with this Imac, it just the main guts. So I would need to build a suitable enclosure to maintain proper air flow, and use the QS power supply outside the Imac. That wouldn't appear to be a big problem.
2) My biggest concern is this. The QS power supply uses 28v for the start circuits, versus 24v for the G5 Imac PS. Would this make a significant difference, and if so, why? I'm assuming it will, but it an area I'm unsure of with the Imac. Any thoughts or experiance in this area here would be greatly appreciated.
3) Hey, if worse comes to worse, I can always purchase the extra parts and rebuild the Imac for around $200-$300 US, and it would still be a deal (at least I think so). However, at present this is just a pet project, and if it goes south (doesn't work), it's not like I'm out some major $$$$.
Thanks in advance!

Summary of the poroblem:
Facts:
1) The laptop works perfectly fine using the battery.
2) The battery dose not charge using the AC adapter that came with the laptop.
3) The battery dose not charge when the laptop is turned on or off.
4) No chaging light turns on when pluged into AC.
5) When the battery is pluged into the battery slot on the laptop, the white AC power led on the dc jack turns off.
6)The very second I remove the battery from the computer, the white AC power led on the dc jack turns back on!
7) With the battery removed and the AC power supply pluged into the laptop, the laptop won't turn on, and the white AC power led on the dc jack remains on.
Tests done:
1) Used another adapter with the laptop, but had the same problem.
2) Used different battery, but had the same problem.
Interesting fact:
When the battery is completly drained out, the white AC power led on the dc jack turns on, but I still cannot turn on the laptop on AC power supply.
Note:
I Have a multimeter that I want to use to test the power supply and charging circuit on the motherboard, but I don't have a schamatics of the mother board, so I am stuck.
Any suggestions from the HP community would be appriciated. Thanks.

The laptop has a modular DC jack that plugs into the motherboard with a cable and does not require soldering. The first thing to try is a replacement of that jack. Here is the Service Manual:

Depending on what company made the PS, most companies over exagerate what they will do, or give a peak power output instead of a constant rated amprage. If thier PS will maintain a constant 200watt under full load, then it will get the job done in a all-in-1 unit. Check this page for power consumption of all your parts. It`s kinda old and the values for the VC and processors could be a bit higher, but it will give you a good idea.

Using UK power supply internationally

Hi,
I have a recent (jan 2010) MBP from the UK. I will need to use this machine in Brazil, I'm wondering if I need a full step-down transformer or just a power adapter?
Any advice or experiences would be appreciated.

I've used mine all over the world and it's just fine - It'll work 110 thru 240v with just the appropriate adapter.
The only thing I would add though is that if you depend on your laptop for your trip - photos/work etc. then take a spare power supply.
I've had two pop on me when I've been in less accessible areas with poorer quality of power. Just to be clear before I get hit by the Apple boys I'm sure the issue was with local power quality rather than the units themselves.

Is this computer compatible with this power supply?

I was just wondering how I can tell what power supply is compatible with my motherboard? I am considering on going to bestbuy and buying a better power supply for the use of a graphics card
my new computer is a Gateway - Desktop / Intel® Core™ i3 Processor / 8GB Memory / 1TB Hard Drive
Model: DX4840-03E | SKU: 9973838
and I have an XFX PVT98GYAF3 GeForce 9800 GT 512MB 256-bit DDR3 PCI Express 2.0 x16 HDCP Ready SLI Support Video Card
so i don't know what to get on terms of a power supply, and what is compatible with my computer. I live close enough to the Bestbuy in Moline, Illinois. So I want to get one instore not order one online

I am willing to bet that the current PSU in your computer would support the GPU you are wanting to install on the computer. That GPU is not as power-hungry as a top-end card, so won't utilize too much power.
I honestly would recommend installing the GPU first prior to spending money on a PSU you may not need. If the computer seems to not be working, you should be able to install the corsair 650w PSU into your computer without many complications -- however I would talk to a local Geek Squad Counter-intelligence agent prior to purchasing the product.
Geek Squad Mission Control Agent - Serving the Public, Policing Technology, and Protecting the World.
My replies and posts are helpful information of my own opinion. They are not, nor will they ever be, the official stance or opinion of Best Buy, Geek Squad, or any of their affiliates, subsidaries, or parent companies.

Should i stop using this power supply??
