your pc uses a power supply with a switch from 140 to 240 watts. you plan to upgrade your cpu to a 5600, but you're concerned about power limitations. when using the 140 watt setting, the system struggles and crashes; at 240 watts the gpu draws too much power, causing issues. you need a reliable power supply that can handle the demands of both your new cpu and gpu without overheating or failing. consider checking compatibility with your specific models and ensure the PSU provides stable voltage for smooth operation.
The 240/120 specification applies across various countries today. Each one typically offers this level of DC power. This setup relates to AC wall power, suggesting an older power source—likely a desktop rather than a full integrated unit. No specific origin is indicated. (Unless relevant) Not every AM4 motherboard supports Zen3, though Zen2 was widely available. A BIOS update is probably necessary for any functionality. Most lower-cost boards require a functional CPU to enable the update. Repair shops often have CPUs ready for this purpose. You’ll almost certainly need a more powerful power supply, since the current one’s wattage isn’t specified. The voltage you’re using (110V, 120V, or 220-250V) is important—check the pinned troubleshooting posts for guidance. Updated August 2, 2022 by Bombastinator
