Thread: PC wont turn on

cheapest to try replacing the power supply first before declaring the MB shot.....

Prime suspect is the Rosewill power supply = Very weak supply and components that are not quality. They simply don't last long with any video card. You can test it if you wish, but that is where I would put my money and purchase a quality unit. Testing a Power Supply with a Multimeter /or/ How to test a Power Supply with a Multimeter

You are very fortunate the Rosewill has not failed and damaged other hardware.

OK, thanks a lot for the help. Now which one of these would you recommend? Should i just go with the 950w? http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16817139 005 http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16817139 012 http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16817139 013

For some reason, all the links posted for Newegg are going to their homepage instead of to the page that is linked to. A 9800GT requires a minimum 400W PSU so I would suggest a 650W Corsair or the 750W for $10 more. Either would sufficient with some head room for future GPU upgrades.

Ok, I was wondering if the 950w Corsair was worth the price but if the 650w or 750w are enough then i'll go with one of them. Thanks again.

The 650 & 750 will be plenty but I like the way you think. You can not have too much power.
