I am looking to start getting parts for my custom computer.
I know I know get it all at once. But the situation is that I dont have 1700 at all.
What I am going to do is get the little things that I can put in my computer atm.
Dell Dimension 8300. Currently 150W 12V
Would there be any needed changes BIOS? Settings? Or plug and play?
For http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.a ... 6817139001
What you guys thing?

If the case can support a standard ATX psu you'll be perfectly fine with that PSU

Ya it fits, but you'll need a 24pin to 20pin ATX adapter cable.

The Corsair uses 20+4 pin configuration so it will work fine.

Yep, its a 20+4 pin connector...Nice catch on that one!

Next time I'll look at the stats instead of just peeking inside my case. :lol:
