My current system is in my specs, with a 450W antec smartpower 2.0 PSU.
I've been having trouble getting my video card not to freeze when it's idle on the desktop overnight, as u may have read in my post in the software forum.
So i was looking into getting a radeon card, either 4850 or 4870. And possibly a PSU.
What manufacturer is the best for radeon? sapphire?
Is the single slot 4850 that bad for heat? or should i not worry about it.
Psu, if i get the 4870 i think ill need a more powerful PSU, the corsair 550 VX with 40a on one 12v rail is a popular model here right?
How much better is the 550 VX compared to the 520 hx (modular).
