Power Supply Issues
I have yet another question. Someone told me that I would have troubles from "piggy backing" my fans power cords together and running them off the power supply. I dont think I will because they all draw the same amount of power no matter where they are plugged in. I do believe later in the life of the power supply the one power cord will become somewhat stresses from the usage.
My big question is will it effect anything when I upgrade from the 2100+ chip to a 3000+ chip? My power supply is an Antec SmartBlue 350 watt supply. I really dont see any reason it should. Just want to make sure like anyone else would.

Nope, no problem piggy-backing fans at all. No, it will not get stressed. Yes, the 350 should be just fine!
How's that for a short answer?? ![]() HTH TwoRails |

Great short answer. I figured it wouldnt, but the stress on the wire later in life just might. Wanted to know! TwoRails you are the greatest! Hehe! Thanks again!
