So my computer stopped working the other day and through an autopsy, i narrowed the problem down to simply replacing my power supply. I opened my computer to look for the wattage, volts, etc. required by the power supply. I was told I should look for the wattage and buy something that either matches or exceeds it. The thing is that my power supply says in all caps MUST NOT EXCEED 160W. Ive been told that 160W is very low. Also, what does "+12v rail" mean? Should the voltage of my new power supply match the old ones? can i exceed the voltage? Is there anything else that i must look into before buying my power supply?
what should i look at. The input amount of volts or the output?
