    300W PSU equivalent to a 200W?

    Hey Dakota81 the formulation above is correct and the total totalamperage the 300W PSU provides is about 46A totaling about 290 Watts of Power like you had mentioned. It's written on the PSU. Thanks for everyone's help.

    300W PSU equivalent to a 200W?

    Got you now, I should've figured to use P=VI formula, now it makes sense so I'm guessing the 3.3 wire is the one that goes to the mobo, therefore it's only getting 14A. I wonder what the current the P4S333 mobo requires. I appreciate the help and thanks.

    300W PSU equivalent to a 200W?

    I was with my mobo's tech support and the guy asked for my PSU's power and I told him 300W and he also asked me to read him this: MAX DC OUTPUT: +3.3V 14A +5V 20A +12V 12A He then told me that my psu was the equivalent of a 200W psu? does anyone know how he got this. He mentioned the...

    paparazi <---tried the 60 mm fan and plugged it into the cpu plugin. And plugged in the cpu fan where the chassis fan goes. but It still got me nowhere. I appreciate the help anyways. Will have to maybe get asus to give me a replacement. Thanks to everyone here for all your suggestions and...

    no cpu installed/ bios problems

    BAdBigBen <---the voice message is part of the motherboard's feature. It can't be a virus. I have it barebones sitting on a piece of cardboard nothing hooked up but the video card, memory, fans. No hardrives..no virus. Plus i've reset the cmos so many times it's unlikely. Still waiting to...

    cpu/motherboard/cmos problems? please help

    FSB? on the mobo? i've loaded the setup defaults and haven't messed with any othe mobo's jumpers. So do you think it's the mobo is fried or running at the wrong fsb speed? thanks for the replies. I'm still working on this.

    &quot;Temporarily plug in a faster 60mm unit and re-route the existing fan plug to the case fan header to test my theory&quot; so you're saying get a 60mm cpu fan and replace it with the cpu fan I'm using now? I don't get the rerouting part. Will it fit on my cpu? thanks again.

    paparazi <--got you now bro, no dissing here. Will give it a go. Thanks. I recently took out the mobo and placed it on carboard and hooked it up barebones and still the same problems. I guess it's not the standoffs or anything metal touching. Thank you all for the help.

    no cpu installed/ bios problems

    paparazi <---not the cpu fan bro. No processor installed. It's the motherboard voice saying it constantly. The fan is working fan, i posted the temps above.

    no cpu installed/ bios problems

    well thanks for the reponses and sorry for the delay. But the &quot;no cpu installed&quot; voice message happens before the 10 minutes of the cmos trying to complete post and then after it completes post, and during the boot up until I get to the windows xp professional logo and then it stops...

    no cpu installed/ bios problems

    I am having problems with my pc and was wondering wether there are any suggestions out there. I get a &quot;no cpu installed&quot; and then it hangs for a while and then it said &quot;system completed post&quot; and as it was booting it kept saying &quot;no cpu installed&quot; until it booted...

    cpu/motherboard/cmos problems? please help

    Thanks for the replies I think I'm gonna go get some thermal paste and try that. I have popped the fan off a couple of times off the cpu so maybe that rubbed the thermal paste off. I left it off all night and it booted up into the bios and said my system hung for an improper cpu speed. I'm...

    cpu/motherboard/cmos problems? please help

    I've tried reseting the cmos via the jumper and the cpu fan is connected and blowing away. I've also checked the temps and voltages via the bios hardware check. It all seems to be running fine. Any other suggestions or do you think i'm gonna have to go start swapping parts with the local...

    cpu/motherboard/cmos problems? please help

    I am having a problem I can't grasp. I turn my box on and i just get a blank screen and no beep from the cpu. I've resat the ram, checked all the cables. I've reset the cmos, replaced the cmos battery. The bios is up to date according to the manufacturer's website. After I reset the cmos I...
