i spent the last 3 minutes trying to figure out what the hell i was doing on newegg

[meowmynips]

Stuff on the sticker:

AC input (47-63Hz) : 100 - 127V / 6A [200 - 240V / 4A]

DC output: +5v / 25A [+3.3v / 18A] [5vSB / 2A] [+12v / 14A] [-12v / 0.8A]

+5v & +3.3v shall not exceed 165W
+5v & +12v shall not exceed 218W

Max output power: 250W

That is all i could find out for today. Im going to bed, will be on after school (HOPEFULLY).

Please, while im gone, recommend me some graphics card.

Only 250W? That's not even enough to power a computer built in the early 90's, no fuck that, the late 80's.

[McSanchezV2]

You really need a new psu.

[meowmynips]

I might as well get a new computer, right?

Please look for some for me whil im asleep and at school :3:

you can't even download CPU-Z and tell us what slot you have, you shouldn't get any reasonable help, since you're not comprehending most of what we're saying, you might end up breaking something.

[McSanchezV2]

You didn't even tell us what computer you have.

I see OP isn't the only one needing a new GPU in this thread :v:

[Armotekma]

250w

i have this little shitty pc out in my shed that has a 100W psu (or 250)

so yeah
build a new computer because you can't put any reasonable graphics card in there

[TheMadness]

your logic is flawed

low power PSU =/= need to get new PC

low power PSU = just buy a new PSU
