A quick question:

What is the CPU utilization value?

How much the CPU is utilized.... Twisted Evil

LMAO@RD!

Of course it is that! Razz

But to get into more detail, it is how much load the processor is handling. 100% means that the CPU is working at full capacity, while 40% it's working on less than half its capable capacity. You get the point... Wink

LOL, sorry for that, couldn't resist.

You never want to see CPU utilization at 100%. It means your working the hell out of it, and going to fry something. Mine, with heavy paint work, 3-4 windows open (depending on programs used) is usually around 52%. Otherwise, for FS9 Flights, I am at 32%.

Anything below 60% utilization, means your working fine, and not over using or abusing your CPU. You can find out what is going on by checking your processess (if I remember right). It also dictates how fast you can do your work.

Ok, so to stay on topic.. Laughing

Where can I get a 1100W PS thats not overpriced or overrated? Because I dont want it to burn my entire computer nor pay tons of bucks on it too. Any excellent brand/company with good models out there? Smile

Thanks!

P.S. Please provide a good one, that would last at least 3 years from now. Because my dad is going to Indonesia, and he might be able to get it there. Thank you once again.

EDIT....RD: 1100KW ???? You might want to move next to a Nuclear Power Plant if your system needs 1,100,000 watts.

EDIT by Captain El: Whoops.. I meant 1100Ws.. Laughing

Thanks guys for the answer.

NOw back to the topic lol...
You can try going to http://newegg.com for some great deals. I believe there are only a few kilowatt PSUs out in the market nowadays. You can try searching around.
