hi i have a sony vaio pcv-rx860 does anyone know what kind of power supply it has? and also i found a cheap refurbished asus 9550 video card on newegg. here's the link http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.asp?Item=N82E16814121511R is it good for overclocking?
one more question if my system could handle all this: does the 9550 have good 2d(text, graphic. etc) quality. that's pretty important to me other the 3d because i work on lots of office work and i edit photos.

I have the same card...for the price, you can't beat it. Excellent 2D quality (typical of all ATI cards), good for moderate 3D gaming, & easily overclockable. The 9550 is just an underclocked 9600, so using ATiTool, you can unlock it & reset the core clock from 250MHz to 325MHz (9600 speed) without any worries, or you can overclock even higher

I have a Vaio VGC-RB40 and was wondering what Video Cards there are out there that would work with the defalt power supply and with a LCD Disply screen with DVI-I port. Also if someone could tell me how meny watts are on my comp's power supply that would help also. Thanks.
Summary: My other option would be to get a new case and power supply and put everything into it. The other parts in the computer look pretty compatiable, can I just swap everything into a different case? ...
Summary: Does you Sony Vaio power supply have a fan on the bottom that connects to an air guide over the cpu and the cpu has no fan? If so you will have to get a similar type power supply. Or you will have to...
