  • Need help upgrading PSU for inspiron 570? Not computer savvy?

    hey guys! so i'm trying to upgrade my PSU to a 750w ATX power supply (or a better one if you guys have any recommendations.) The problem that I have run into is my friend said I had to figure out if my motherboard or something has 20 or 24 pins??!! Not sure what that means :( And it's stalled me in ordering a PSU so that I can use my new graphics card! I play a lot of video games and the stock integrated graphics card and PSU are terrible for the games I play. I know this isn't a gaming computer :P I don't play any intense games by the way!! all in all:

    1. GTX 470 graphics card

    2. What type of PSU is compatible with my motherboard?

    3. Do you have one in mind that would work with everything I have?

    Was looking around on the internet and someone put this one in theirs but the graphics card requires 550 min.

  • In need of a graphics card for gaming that won't cost me a fortune? :(?

    hey guys! so I've been playing world of warcraft for about 5 years now, its the only game I have ever played on a computer. Throughout all of my computers that I have had in the past 5 years, I have never been able to bring the graphic settings any higher than good on maybe 1 or 2 settings.

    I bought an Inspiron 570 which currently runs maybe 3 or 4 settings on good but everything has to be on low to do 25 mans( if you play you'll know what I'm talking about.) I have been looking around for first person shooter games that I possibly could play on my computer, but right now the graphics card is so terrible that I am not able to even think about installing something like COD or BF3 and starting it up.

    I am looking to buy a new graphics card that would allow me to play these games on at least "good" on the setting meter. I don't exactly have a budget, but I'm not trying to spend like 400 dollars on a graphics card. I'm also not very skilled when it comes to messing around with the hardware on a computer, and a friend of mine said I would also have to upgrade the power supply along with the new graphics card?!?! idk.

    All in all, what is a graphics card that you would recommend that is not pricey? Thank you so much for reading my question, and answering to the best of your ability : )! Have a great day!

  • Why don't children treat their parents with more respect?

    I was looking on facebook, and in my newsfeed this girl was calling her mother a wh*re and stuff! I get mad at my mom sometimes too, but I could NEVER do such things to her like that. This girl was commenting on the status and just kept saying worse and worse things about her mother. I wanted to say something so bad, but I didn't because she's the type of girl that would try to hunt me down and fight me. I understand that not all parents are great parents, but I would never do that to my mom even if she wasn't the best parent in the world. I will only ever have 1 dad and mom and I love them to death. Why do children these days have such little respect for their parents??!?!

  • Is this the planet that is supposed to "collide into earth"? -picture-?

    I was on my way home from Pittsburgh, and the sun was shining real bright so I decided to take a picture, and look into the clouds! I believe at this time you can see Jupiter and Uranis (i think). I don't really know what this is. Any information would be very much appreciated :D

  • Ways to build muscle without going to the gym?

    Hello! I have not been doing any sort of exercise for about a year, and I really want to get into shape before I turn 18 so I can join the military and not get my booty kicked in BCT! : ) I am very poor, and a gym membership is out of the question for getting in shape so I've been looking into exercises to do at my home to get some muscle. I know of Push ups/crunches/sit ups/squats. Is there anything else that I can do to help me get into shape? Thanks in advance for the advice!

  • Why is same sex marriage so wrong to society?

    I personally, am not gay. But I don't see why it's so wrong to people. I'm not a very religious person, but when I was around 12 years old and I went to bible school, the biggest thing I learned was that everyone should be treated equally. I was reading an article and it said that you can't reproduce either, and we all know you can't. What if people do not want children? I know plenty of people who have had their tubes tied etc. In this article they also stated that 2 gay people raising a child is denying them the love of both a mother and father, yet there are countless single parents in the world-isn't that practically the same thing? Not too long ago, racism was legal. Whites were allowed to discriminate against blacks, they were the second class citizens. Now society discriminates against gays. These two things are very similar.

    Sorry in advance if I did not word everything properly, I'm sure you get my point! There is so much more I want to put in here but it's very hard for me to express.

  • My small dog is going to stay with my dad but he has large dogs and I'm scared because..?

    One day I was taking my dog on a walk, out of the blue 3 golden retrievers came charging at us! They were trying to get my dog so I picked her up and threw her, as I was going down to pick her up I got bit in the hand. Well, at my dad's there is a black lab, a pitt bull, and a chiwowa. (sorry for the spelling). Ever since the attack I have been extremely frightened to even place my dog in the situation that she will be around larger dogs just because of the fact that what happened to my hand was merely a nip! And if that were to be my dog I'm afraid she wouldn't be able to live through a larger dog attack like I could. The dogs have been around each other before and the pittbull is a female, they don't have problems! It's the black lab that pinned my dog down on the ground and snarled at her. Ever since then I have not let them be around each other as that too has frightened my beyond belief. After the pinning and snarling, do you think that the dog will in fact attack my dog or do they just need time to be around each other? This has me worried sick )=

  • Why won't my mom kick my brother out?!?!?!?

    She works 2nd shift, he's 19 he has no job, he hardly even wakes up to go to his GED classes, his girlfriend has meezled her way into living here and does not pay 1 penny towards food, bills, anything! She goes and spends her money on tattoos or alcohol. I'm homeschooled because the local school district here has a very strong drug environment. But more information about my brother, my mom works 2nd shift so she can't witness for herself what goes on and it's up to me to tell her. My brother has ALL of his friends in our tiny apartment doing drugs, they all eat our food, drink everything we have until it's gone, they're so disrespectful! I left the school district because cocaine was getting sold in the halls and I've been dealing with drugs at my house ever since. Now that he doesn't go to school all he does is waits for my mom to leave then invites all his druggie friends over to do some drugs. (This is a 2 bedroom apartment which means my mom sleeps on the couch, I've tried to switch her but she wants me to have my own room.) They don't go into his room they do everything where my mom has to sleep at night. We're very poor and with all his friends eating and drinking everything after buying more items and paying the bills there is no money left. )= why doesn't she listen to me and kick them out?!!

    This probably has something to do with a mother and son bond but they don't even talk! She gets home at 11 PM and by that time he's out somewhere partying until the early hours of the morning. ugh \=

  • I did a little experiment with my dog and I was wondering if there is any known logic behind her actions?

    We are both females-I put 2 crackers on the floor and nibbled on another one and sat the one I nibbled on away from the other crackers. she sniffed the 2 other crackers but proceeded to the one I nibbled on and ate that one before the others. Is it just a coincidence or? :) I've been doing some experiments on my dog like this and I am just curious! :Dthanks!

  • How do I clean up most of the dog hair in my room?

    I know there is no way to completely get rid of it, but the dog hair in my room is just completely out of control. If I have a drink in my room the hair will find its way in & stuck to my glass. don't give me that "Welcome to having a dog" crap, I've had other dogs but they didn't shed this bad. We recently got her shaved so it's just all the long hair that is literally... floating around in my room. I just cleaned off my night stand and desk and it's already got hair on it ]= I'm scared that I can get hurt from possibly breathing it in when I'm sleeping
