Power Supply!

Post by achy »

Hey hey! Ok so my new tower will be here tomorrow and i need to swop out the 450W with my new 750W. I have never done this before so im just wanted in to is there is somewhere i cant go wrong? What i mean by this is, Everything that needs plugging in doesn it only have one slot it can go in? or is it a hard job? My new one also comes with a PCI adapter which i dont know what to do with it :D

i put a new psu in my comp not that long ago, its a bit of a pain in the arse cause you need to make sure that the psu has enough connector things for all yer stuff but the actual plugging in of it is simple enough
