    Just wondering do they provide the same power supply for different CPU's? Would my one that came with my 1.5GHz core2duo + 8600GT be the same as someone with the 2.2GHz Santa Rosa + 8600GT ?

    Trying to route down my pinmodding problems with the stuck 6x multiplier.

    Thanks,

    yes. dell gives a 90watt adapter with any pc with a dedicated graphics card and 65 watt adapter with any pc with integrated graphics. Dell uses the same psu's across all their laptops just wattage is different. Your 2 should be the same.
