    your crazey and have no idea what you are trying to defeat for real. I wasn’t bashing but stipulating that he should understand how to read the puncuation. Had he understood what the punctuation was, then he wouldn’t have thought that the page was about Building a power supply.

    You really must get out of the house. For real. I also never came on this thread insulting anyone. I mearly stated that it would be easier to install the power supply first. Read the facts, or shoosh!

  • DJMONKAY:

    Then you replied to the wrong person.

    I received an email, saying you were responding to my comment. When I opened the email, I was being told to basically go back to “**** English” – That isn’t an insult or jab? To me is seems so; and especially the tone of the message, which came off as rude. So I basically responded back.

    There was no facts to read. I got the email & read your comment.

  • ez0469:

    wellt hat is the beauty of the internet, you can aceept the conversations as you please. If you think that there is something off about it, then the responcible thing is to inquire about it. This is the problem with the public today.

    For future reference; remember I am dyslexic and that it is really hard to communicate in textual formats. To top it off I am phonemic Dyslexic so that only makes it worse.

  • ez0469:

    But that doesn’t mean I can’t analyze the text presented in multipule angles to get the appropriate language usage. I didn’t mean to be insulting. However I am blunt becuase that is the easiest way for me to convey my message.

    So NEway, the internet allows us to talk freely however we feel appropriate, and because this is true, it is very possible to have a communication problem

  • DJMONKAY:

    Are you seriously dyslexic?

    If truly you are. I can understand the word spelling error.

    But then again being dyslexic you should know that making fun of someone spelling and grammar isn’t right. Especially when you have a problems to. That’s all I was saying. You could convey your message in another way without being rude (or what may seem rude to others)

    Yes, its very easy to have a mis-communication on the internet and I understand that as well. It’s all good.

  • holla06:

    the cat has the screw!!!!! XD lol

  • Krump1025:

    WILL ANY PSU FIT IN ANY COMPUTER??

  • alex14469:

    there are standards, most common is atx psu

  • bestgamer2112:

    should you ware gloves

  • 413591:

    thxxxxxxxxxxx u awnsome

  • Bubbajeezy:

    Yes, most should, unless you have an extremely tiny case.

  • Krump1025:

    OK thanks for the use full info

  • primadanyar:

    you got a lot of vine

  • fenderbassplayewr455:

    u dont have to

  • fenderbassplayewr455:

    Yeah he does have alot of wine doesn’t he?

  • huzibizi:

    2:37 your hair lol

  • huzibizi:

    If you have a ATX case, then use a ATX Power Supply. If you have a mATX (micro atx) case, use a mATX Power Supply. Siimplezz…squeak.

  • warrior5496:

    My ATX power supply works just fine on my micro atx board, so think they’re universal or a micro atx supply is just more compact and less connectors.

  • huzibizi:

    Yes, that’s right but just about any atx/matx power supply will work with just about any matx/atx motherboard.

    But it’s different with the computer case. The cases are seperated into categories, ATX and mATX (micro atx). Any atx/matx motherboard will fit into an atx case, but only matx motherboards will fit into a matx case.

    And, If you have a ATX case, then use a ATX Power Supply. If you have a mATX (micro atx) case, use a mATX Power Supply.

  • cjgan80:

    depends on the PSU and casing , but now all the psu are standard casing size
