You got friends using 4850GS? Can borrow their card to test on your pc see is it the psu problem or not. There's alot of psu below Rm250.

no wor. but if i change back to old GC then can power on as normal so i suspect is PSU not enough power lo.
can you recomment some PSU for me?

Firstly, i wanna know is it u using the PSU same as mine? (Refer my sig) Cos i can run it well so far for 2 days 24/7.
Ok, if you budget really enough i will recommend the Corsair PSU, very power at single rail and even 450 watt is enough for this 4850GS baby but if for future upgrade or more component to add on, u might take at least 550 watt since now buy 450 watt seem not so worth. smile.gif

yes, same as urs
pls refer my sigature, i not sure is it enuf power o not

yes 550W now consider cheap..

actually 450W is enough, the problem most of ppl here using acbel/CM which often picky when using with certain hardware.. ie: mobo, gpu etc

u consider lucky to use parts that suitable with that psu..

i not sure is picky problem o not. but i will check it by today hopefully.
i will try conenct the gc to another pc see is the gc can run well o not...

although i might sound stupid, but did you connect your PCIe connector to the 4850GS?

anyway, for below RM250, you can get a good 500W PSU from Silverstone
or just add extra rm80 for 560W ST56F

PCIe connector mean?i not sure which connector u refer to...sorry for my poor knowleadge
is it the 8pin connector?
i already connect all connector leh
