the dell vostro 200 slim tower has a pcie slot.. im wondering if its ok to buy an hd3850 then buy a power supply.. but if i do that the case will be open because it won't fit and there will be 2 power supplies.. any suggestions? what's the cheapest psu that i can get for hd3850 video card?

I'm using the stock voltage, 1.325 in bios.. but it says 1.280 v in cpu-z because of the vdrop issue. mine's an L2, was hoping to get M0 because i just got it last week... but oh well.. i'm still happy with it i just hate the intel stock cooler.. its so noisy.

i just built my first rig yesterday.. first i did 2.66ghz but i felt i wanna push more so i pushed it to 3ghz but was unstable and the temps were getting 75 stock cooler , stock voltages e2140 363 x 8 but i wonder why my temps are high.. 70c on orthos 30-40 idle hmmmmm

i bought the cooler master PSU already... hmmm should i buy the 4 pin to 8 pin adapter? what do you suggest? will the mobo still run if i don't have the adapter?

i chose the COOLER MASTER eXtreme Power 650W because i bought an 8800 GTS.. its only $45 after rebates hehehe.. BTW, the Cooler master PSU only has a 4-pin cpu power connector but the Abit mobo uses the 8pin... will it still work?
