computers are hard

[THEGOD]

i have a 350 watt power supply. Here is the machine specs:
dvdrw drive
250 gb hard drive
512 ddr
2.4ghz p4
al in wonder 9800 pro
dvd rom drive
adisk drive
via motherboard

is a 350 watt power supply or will i have to get another one?

umm 350 watts is much that it is. Id go for 115/230 watt power supply. The hard drive is huge you'll have to wait hours for that to be scanned. But if you want one that big get more ram 2 512's. I would go for a ATI video card, personally I think their better.

Thats what the dood has. o_O

I'd say keep the 350 power supply. And as much ram as you can cram into it. It's quite cheap and affordable.

I just bought my computer and it is only 2.39 GHZ. LOL but it's good for me

Don't go by people's opinions, check the recommendations from Intel and add up the power consumption of all your peripherals. Then you'll get an exact answer on what you need.

If your computer is hard, maybe you should give it a nice cold shower. Or get Elly to have a look at it, I'm sure she could take it in the back room and, ah, soften it up a little. *cough*
...Ok, that was just tasteless. XD

Make sure you have more cooling than you could possibly ever need. Computers get frigging hot. Nothing sucks worse than a fried CPU. Trust me.
