Thanks for all your advice.

After reading several thousand reviews I have swallowed my pride and decided buying a new power supply is the best thing to do.

Can anyone recommend a 450w+ one that is good and relatively cheap and will fit in my Dell e520...

Cheers

Still, if you're gaming I'll assume you've the sound cranked up as well?
