I want a GeForce 6600 GT for my system but i found out I have a really bad power supply (Bestec ATX-250 - 250w). I don't know how my PC has been running all the components in my pc. The specs are:
-AMD Athlon 64 3400+
-1GB DDR SDRAM
-Radeon 9600 (vanilla)
-XP home
Here are my questions:
1.) would an increase of power to 450w increase the performance of my pc?
2.) Is my current PSU a bottleneck to any components in my pc?
3.) Is this a good power supply / brand? http://www.qtec.info/products/product.htm?artnr=14029
4.) How do I know whether this PSU will fit or work with my PC?
5.) If I wanted to upgrade again from a 6600GT to a 6800U or similar, would a 400-450w PSU be enough?
Thanks in advance
