    I've recently become aware that if I stick with the cheapo power supply that came with my cheapo case, that I may encounter problems in the future. I was wondering (it may depend on my case), but does anyone know if I'll have to take the motherboard out before I replace the PSU, or will it just come out easily?

    Thanks, Thomas

    no, as izzy said you don't have to remove the mobo, just (probably the side of the system box) then unplug everything connected to the PSU (obviously remembering which connector went) and just unscrew (probably 4 screws) the PSU then just replace the PSU with your new one (i assume ATX or mATX) and connect all the wires, and wae - la, done,
