Power Supply Upgrade Q
I think I already know the answer to this but no harm in asking for someone else's opion. I'm considering upgrading my power supply from the current 250 watt (completely inadequate considering my wife's system has has taken a nose dive) to one of these three:
CWT 420W Dual Fan PS w/ auto temp control (1) or
350W DUALFANS POWER SUPPLY FOR P4/XP BY TOPOWER
350W DUALFANS POWER SUPPLY FOR P4/XP BY ENERMAX
Considering my system specs (see lower) is there anything I should take have in mind before trudging off to the store and doling out the cash? What I mean to say is by upgrading, way up, am I putting my system at risk?
