HI,I have a DELL E 512 that i would like to replace the PSU in it,looking at about 500 watts as the one in this PC is supposed to be 305 watts must be cheap as i do not have a lot spend on it right now,plus will give a chance to tinker with. Also would like to replace GPU,CPU IN future,thank's
HI,ddp,I have found a CPU called WINDSOR that only uses 89 watts and runs at 3.0 mhz and they sell for about $30 to $40 ON EBAY. The CPU i have in my PC is a 2.0 mhz per Speccy. I added another 2GB'S of ram which gives me 4GB'S. I had a GT610 but all i got in this PC were black lines put in the other DELL E521 and have had no problems at all some people have suggested a bad PSU,will look at a 550WATT PSU,there are my future ideas.
don't you mean 2 or 3ghz not 2 or 3 mhz? try the psu from other dell into this & try the card again to see what happens as might not be bad psu? what windows & 32bit or 64bit?
Yes it should have been ghz,and it is a 32bit. I have a GATEWAY GT 4010 that HDD appears to have gone bad i will need see what how many watts it puts out. Will pull the PSU out the other DELL and do as you suggested,thank's
Yes that's what i have read but Speccy showed when i just ran it. The other DELL is being used in a business so i do not want to tear in to it. Well i think i will look into a PSU that will work in this PC as i want to add video card in the future i do not think it has to be a big one 450 watts should be enough.
HI,ddp,Here is what Speccy says about CPU. It is a AMD ATHLON 64 3200+ running at 90 degrees. ORLEANS 90NM TECHNOLOGY.
it is an e521 not e512 as e512 not shown on dell site. specs link as can go to amd dual core. ftp://ftp.dell.com/Manuals/all-products/esuprt_desktop/esuprt_dimension_desktops/dimension-e521_service%20manual_en-us.pdf
