1. I come to believe that my system's PS is suspect. I would like to
replace it. How does one figure out which PS to get? What determines
what specific model one buys: size of the case (desktop), type of the
MB (mine is an 865), etc.? Do all PSs come with the same number of
connectors? Any preferences? Since I may have to leave the box open
for a while, I'd like one with a quiet fan.
What's inside the box now is a:
Powmax
ATX Switching PS
Model No. LP-8800D
It's a 400W model and it's ATX 2.03 and ATX12V 1.1 compliant,
whatever that means. I would like to go up a notch to a 450W.
If there is primer on PSs, please point me in the right direction.
2. The slot fan I got has two power plugs: a male and a female. I
connected the female to a connector from the PS. Nothing happens. Do
these things start spinning if the temperature goes to certain level
or am I supposed to find a second connector for the male plug,
although I don't see any free ones?
I will be grateful for your help.
