I edited it, "chances are you burned it, try disconnecting it from everything for an hour or so, (flicking it back to 240w before that is) and then try again, you might get lucky", try that, also, 300w won´t cut it for the spec i gave you mate : (

right o will do, and the 300watt is there so i can install windows xp and things for when i get my graphics card etc

also if worst comes to worst i found the same PSU on aria for like £25

hmmm with that cpu and graphics, you might even start it, and it will shut down for lack of power with that psu, you need at the very least a decent 450, but i´d recommended the xilence 420 RMS (as it´s real power, not max power output) or a normally measured 500w

Edit: YES!, that is the xilence 420w, awesome PSU : D

well wait 1 more week and if not contact them, ask them for a tracking number or something, it could also be stuck at customs.

Don't OC unless you are prepared to lose everything you just built

Overclocking is fine, but if you don't know how to do it, please don't try!

You can get "overclocking for dummies" programs from the manufacturer of your CPU and graphics card which will give you a moderate boost in speed, but honestly it probably isn't worth the risk - if you wanted faster graphics you should have spent £20 extra on the model above of what you have. Why, for example risk ruining a £160 graphics card when you can get better performance safely from a £180 card?

Ok since the M2N is an nvidia chipset, go to the nvidia website, and search for the a program called "ntune", download, install, and do a 3h autoadjust test, this will overclock your computer in a safe and stable manner : )
