Enermax liberty 500w PSU

Free Image Hosting at www.ImageShack.usi bought this yesterday in hopes that my hard disk is still salvagable since i suspected that my old power supply was the stupid culprit
which was not supplying stable current to drive my 2 dvd drives, 2 sata drives and 1 ide drive.

the old one i bought was from a pc fair in tottenham court road for £14 aptly named sunvision or something. can't remember.
then one of my friends told me that her PSU was costed like RM 800 which is about £130. i almost fell out of my chair.
i knew good power supplies were expensive.. omg.. i didnt know it was that expensive.

but as i read on, they say stable power supply good for health of the pc and more efficient. i found out that maybe my old one is giving problems cos everytime i fiddle with my computer it dies on me.
i.e i helped my flatmate fix his computer.. and then what do i get.. my computer hdd hanging on me.
i've had it.. so it was either upgrade the whole damn computer or buy a new psu.
i wanted something i could use when i upgrade end of this year or next year..
i'm running not a slow spec or not a very fast spec. cos all i do is use it for wow and anime.
amd 64/3000 + 2.5gb ram (1x512 elixir + 2x 1gb kingston) + 250gb sata II + 160 gb sata 1 + 80gb ide + ati 9800xt + asus k8n + x-530 logitech speakers + 21 inch sony crt(heavy as hell 30kg) + ms wireless 1000 keyboard + mouse + 1 hp 8x dvd+r writer(only writes dvd+r) + 1 16x DL pioneer dvd writer (this one does both)
hmm i guess that's all there is to it to my rig.

but i want something better..
lol anyways, i got the psu for £73 now. it's good. so far stable.. i havent tried it while playing wow or doing some heavy stuffs that draws power yet.

i calculated i'd need about about £400 - £500 just to upgrade to a new mobo + ram + gfx + cpu..
it would cos about £300 - £400 if i got them from msia.

note: i found out if there's something wrong with my pc.. i'd do anything to save it from dying..
meaning.. i can't live without a pc... crap.. not good
it's like my precious lol .. i need to get away from my dependency on the PC.

right other than that .. i've been busy lepaking working. weather is getting better.
can't wait to go for a holiday ..


here are the specs for the psu From Enermax

i could have bought it online from here.. but then i didnt wanna wait .. sien .
Lootsale or here microdirect

[EDIT] apparently i found someone who loved/hated bokura ga ita as much i did. hahha i warned her not to read the manga ending.. lol
poor girl..

of brussels sprouts and racial features.

brussel sprouts are in season i think. they are going for 1 pack for 52p. it used to be like 1/4 of the pack for £1. but now seems to be cheaper. oh yeah. it seems to be siu pak choi. but it just didnt opened. anyways, that nite i went to morrisons, to buy more food. but when i walked halfway i found out that i didnt bring my wallet.. ^$£"%$£^%$ but lucky i had coins in my pocket. all i had was 96p. how sad.. lol . i went to the store to look for nga choi. er.. whta they call them here.. i think some sort of beans.. they usually sell them for 45p. i wanted it cos i cooked chicken rice mah. but then they didnt have it. and they have mixed stir fried thingy which was £1.29. poor ole me didnt buy it cos i didnt have enough lol so i hunted for cheap stir fry vege, the sprouts looked like a cheaper alternative. well.. i bought it. cooked it ate it with chicken rice. next thing i knew.. i was down with a bloody cough. ugh.. lotsa phlegm. not sure how i got it.. but that aside, i've ...

living on a budget

£4 per weekday and £10 for groceries for the week. that's it's gonna be till sept. hopefully.. until i start to try shopping again .. -_- so far for the last few days has been okays. spent like £8 for groceries for this week. some beef, some chicken wings( which i completely finished during the weekend) which included half a kg of fruit and nut cadbury. today was 2 for £2 sausage rolls from tescos. nothing else happened. my friend's father died of lung cancer. i wish them condolences. it was so sudden apparently. but i have had no contact with them since i left KL/miri. i heard it from another friend who was in miri who msged me asking me about my blood pressure as he said he was scared now. i asked. scared of dying ? lol. anyways, it's best to be preventing than trying to cure it when it comes.. so i really have to switch back to no salt diet.. T_T kk that's it. season 6 of 24 was like erm... okays... it was basically a repeat of the plots.. hope that's the la...

today will be a bit earlier as i hvae something to say

. last nite went back. threw the rubbish outside the flat. i think the collectors come at about 8pm-ish. and was trying to think of what to cook. i contemplated against making fish fingers with salad. but it turned out my fridge died again.. i dun understand it.. it just turns off. grumbles. and then my salad went bad. so there's no salad to be eaten. and then i thought wth, lets cook spaghetti, then i washed the pot. and then suddenly realized that it was awfully quiet, and the water was running cold. GAH!! the heater was not working. and that would mean we ran out of gas. and the feller who tops up the gas ( we use a gas card) not in. so cannot cook anything. then i was thinking should i go out and buy food. then i remembered that i havent had rice in AGES. so out came the steamer. and + 4 eggs + canned tuna + half a can of corn. steamed rice + steamed eggs + the rest of them. finished it off. phew.. i wouldnt hvae cooked rice if there was gas. bah i guess it worked out all good...
