    Currently I have an Intel supported motherbaord for my dv5t-1000 CTO. I have P8400 2.26GHz, 2GB 667MHz RAM, and unfortunately an integrated 4500MHD graphics. I want to replace my motherboard with an NVIDIA 9600M GT 512MB and same processor and RAM. Will my 65-watt PSU support the new motherboard to run the computer and charge the battery or do I need to buy 90-watts adapter?
