Well I finally broke down and bought a new video card and PSU...tired of this old HP pavilion a1510n so its upgrade time for me, first time in years! im excited to get onto some servers and start playing CSS/BF2/ maybe even COD4 depending on how the Video card handles the demo....so heres the new specs once i get everything installed and running...

AMD 3800+ Venice
2X512mb DDR2
Leadtech 8600GT 512mb
Coolermaster eXtreme Power 460W
Lightscribe DVDR/W
Asus A8N-LA
200gb WD
Windows XP Media Centre Edition

all this wrapped up in a nice HP Pavilion Case :lol:

Is it an HP motherboard? The HP's and the Dell's of the world like using proprietary power supplies with funny pinouts.
