ok my dell came stock with a 360 watt power supply, and it has yet to cause me any trouble. I have a, i7-920, ati 4850 gpu, 2 optical drives(one dvd and one blu-ray) and 2 WD green caviar drives. my friend warned me earlier that if I dont upgrade my PSU I will burn out my computer in a few days. I thought I would ask you smart people about it. so do I need to install a larger PSU, or is it simply a safe than sorry kind of thing? I dont understand how it was fine before the new drive, but now it is going to die...very confused.
thanks a bunch
