Default Wtb/wtt Psu

Hello,

I just bought a computer, with a antec smartpower 400w psu. However, it is not enough power for my current system.

I am looking for a PSU around 480w , somewhat new , willing to trade the 400w PSU and cash.

GTA area, pickup (whatever you feel comfortable with)

Thanks.

Are you sure you need to upgrade? Could you please list all of your PC components. A good 400w psu will run pretty much any system out there.

are you sure you hooked up all the power cables?
that 400w should be enough.

the 6800GS does require a 6pin pci express power to be plugged in aswell.

you'll only get that message if the 6-pin PCI Express power cable hasn't been hooked up. It looks like this

I'm sure someone on these forums has one to spare.
