i just bought a GF 7600GS because this is only i can affor. My question is, what power supply should i buy? is 350watts, 450watts, 500 watts or 550watts? What is the needed power supply of GF 7600GS in particular?
A 300 watt power supply is sufficient for that card...heck even nvidia recommends a 300 watt psu minimum for its new geforce 8600gt, so a 300 watt will defo be enough for a 7600gs....

I recall running into this problem some time ago. Some graphics cards need to be plugged into a power source into the computer itself. This will be a four inlet configuration. It's used to run the fan on the graphics card.

can you teach me how to do that?
1. Shut your computer down.
2. Pull out the power cord.
3. Remove the side panel. The one that gives you access to the inside of your computer.
4. Be sure your grounded. You can fry something in there if you're not.
5. Locate the computers main battery or power supply. it should be fairly big.
6. There is a wire, usually red. At the end of this wire, there should be a four pronged plug. If there are multiple things plugged in, you'll see that as well. The plugs will for a certain loop so that you can plug more stuff in.
7. Locate the plug(same type as the other plugs) on your graphics card. Line the cards plug with your computer's plug and then plug the thing in.
8. Replace side panel and the outside power plug and then power it up.

That ought to do it. :)
WOW tnx!
You're welcome. I was burned by that once myself (It wasn't in the instructions). I figured it out myself.
