ok so heres my setup and i need a psu for it. a good one:

Mobo: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16813153132
Memory: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16820227362
HDD: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16822136161
Video Card: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspxItem=N82E16814161259
CPU: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16819103678
Case: NZXT Mid tower steel case

now the problem was my computer kept restarting and it was because the power supply as the Rowewill 430w psu (suggested by tech-forums which are horrible).

So please help me. thanks
 
Hi gigadork;

The page for the video card doesn;t seem to work but it looks like you do not have a real power hogging system. I would suggest grabbing a 400-500watt psu.

Personally i have the PC Power and Cooling Silencer:

It is not bad at all. It is quite. The only regret i have is that it is not modular. My next PSU will be modular so that it doesn't get messy in the box.

Hope that helps.
 
Ahh very nice, thats the same card as mine, different manufacture though.

Yes i would probably go with something from 400-500watts. as for which one, it depends. Do you want one that is quiet or one that is modular. In the end it all does the same thing though. Like i said, i am using an PC Power and Cooling Silencer which is owned by OCZ.
 
Absolutely. That is a superb PSU, one of the best in the market at that price point. It should be able to handle a 4870 without issues too.

FYI, you can get it slightly cheaper here
 
Have you considered the possibility of CPU thermal issues? You haven't listed enough parts in the system to overload the PSU

I just did a rough calculation on your system with Antec's PSU calculator, and came up with 335 watts, although with no overclock
 
I just found it its a virus lol. Lucky me. I'm tryibng to get rid of it through safe mode any suggestions?
 
And your AV "solution" won't take it out why? We do have Anti-
Virus software installed don't we?

Other than that, go to the "Malware Removal Forum", and read the threads at the top of the page.
