• Acer Aspire M3800 PSU change
    2 replies, posted
So the thing is, my friend has got an Acer Aspire M3800 some time ago, and now he bought a GTX 460 and an OCZ modXstream, on my suggestion. The wares came in today, and I went over to him to have a look. After this, I'm pretty confident that the PSU will fit in there, but I have to get the old one out first, in a way not taking too much hassle. Here's a picture of the case and internals: [img]http://reviews.cnet.com/sc/33707371-2-440-OVI-4.jpg[/img] My idea was to take the RAM out and then take the PSU out by moving it by the optical drive bays and then out. But I would like to get suggestions fro you guys. I'll provide some pics tomorrow, if needed.
it should fit fine but expect a bit of a struggle
[QUOTE=reapaninja;26547512]it should fit fine but expect a bit of a struggle[/QUOTE] Just got a call that he and his dad had done it.. Though they had some problems with it overheating afterwards. Turned out to be a fan blocked by a wire. Now he just needs to upgrade his Celeron E3200, though I'm confident that he'll do it by christmas.
