External power supply for desktop computer?
Hi, I have a stock PC and would like to increase the power supply. However I do not want to change the power supply inside the case, and would rather install an external power supply to perhaps power some of the computer parts, like the graphic card.
Is this recommended? i know that these kinds of power supplies exist but I do not know any particular one. Can you please help me with this? Thanks

Hi there.
To be perfectly honest with you I think If you do not feel capable of changing the Power Supply Unit, you should not consider trying to add another one as well that would be even more complicated and messy! Have a look at the link…load balancing resitors etc.
Once you have bought the higher rated PSU it’s usually pretty simple to fit:
disconnect the mains from the machine
open up the case
unplug all the power cables (all the cables from the psu) you’ll need to squeeze the clip on the ATX connector (the one that connects to the board)
unscrew the psu (four screws on the back of the case) and remove it
slot the new one in
screw in
connect all the cables (they only fit the right connectors and the right way)
screw the case up
power it up!
If you really don’t want to do it, get a computer expert to. It’s safer that way.
I know you mentioned that you didn’t want to but internal power supplys aren’t that expensive and can be installed within 10 minutes.
5 minutes removing the old one.
5 minutes inserting the new one.
It’s basically just four screws, just unplug leads from devices such as CD-ROM drivers, HDD, motherboard etc and then install new Power supply unit (PSU) and attach leads to components again.
Hope this helps,
Jack.
External power supply to an PC?,
Checked out on the web and all I could find is external powering of components from a PSU(spare leads) and external PSU for laptops. No External PSU’s.
My advice is to install a new PSU if it is needed. Like upgrading a hardware that requires more juice or overclocking which requires more cooling components.
