My Set-Up Improvement

Hi Folks,

I've added two pictures of my set-up.

It's a XPS 8000 with a BLU-LED LCD Samsung BX2450 Monitor.

The only problem with the PC is the low powered power-supply and cheap graphics card.

To be precise, 350W PSU and a weak 512MB ATI HD 4350 Graphics Card.

Do you think I can fit a bigger PSU in this "Bespoke Dell" chassis?

Any suggestions?

Most consumer pc's are build in an ordinary ATX chassis, so you can probably fit any ATX-PSU in there.

I suggest you start with finding a gfx-card that you like, and then find a psu with sufficient power potential.

And I then recommend you take a look at these two sites, and look for some of the tested/recommended psu's

I'm actually considering selling it all.
