How can I identify my power supply?

**Skiz** · 12-19-2005, 05:50 PM

I wanted to do some upgrading today, perhaps on a graphics card. I have a Shuttle XPC that's about 2.5 years old. I wondered if there was a way to identify the brand and wattage of the psu without removing the case cover? I looked in System Information and also tried using Everest Home, but I didn't see it in either.

Nope. You have to open it.

I think it's only 200W.

i heard from another forum, a long while ago that, you test the power of it with your tongue while the power is running. If its zaps alittle that its around 200-300w , if it zaps like whole shit, then then it should be around 480-500w atleast....
