499207 2006-11-15 06:29:00 How can I tell what the wattage of my psu is?

Is there any way of finding out if I have an outage because of my PSU's lack of power.

I have no problem with an Nvidia 7900 GT. With the Raedon x1950xts it will not even boot to post. How can I tell ip the psu is at fault?

499208 2006-11-15 06:42:00 Meh, Quit worrying until you are informed whether it works in another machine.

Anyhow, want to sell me your old card?

Was planning on putting it on Trade Me after I get the new one working.

PM me if you want to make an offer

That means the price would be 3 x what you want to pay.

Its written on it somewhere.

I doubt thats the problem, its not a huge jump. I have an X1900XTX running off an Enermax 485w PSU.

Yous being Lian Li it would be perfectly fine.

BTW whats the rest of your hardware specs???

It probably is written on it,but I can't be bothered pulling it out to see. Guess I'll have to though.

Asus A8N-SLI m/b
AMD Athlon 64 4000+ cpu
Corsair ram 2 gigs

and currently an Nvidia 7900gt with 128 mb's

Sitting here waiting Radeon X1950 XTX with 512 mb's that won't work.

499214 2006-11-16 03:02:00 Well I've got the verdict. From the chap with the right gear to test it.

It's stuffed!.

At least it's not my fault.

All I have to do now is get the thing swaped for one that will work.
