- PSU
A power supply is the part of the computer that provides electricity to the computer which allows it to function. It has a fan which cools it and prevents it from overheating, which is when it gets too hot and turns off. It connects to the motherboard and other drives. When purchasing a power supply, be mindful of its wattage. A higher wattage means you can connect more devices to the power supply.
- Wattage? Does it matter?
Higher wattage means you will be able to use every port on the motherboard or every drive bay.
- Modular or No?
Modular Power Supply reduces the amount of clutter in a case by removing unused cables. However, they may create electrical resistance.
