Gateway FX542XT Power Supply
The PSU, or power supply, is in charge of distributing power to the hardware in the computer. It is a pretty straighforward job to install a new PSU in the FX542XT desktop. Do not just look at the price of a new power supply as it is the only thing between high amounts of electricity and your delicate computer hardware. It is always better to replace an old power supply with a similar wattage or bigger. Purchasing a new Gateway FX542XT PSU is quite simple as long as you have the old one for comparison.
Clues the power supply is going out
- Your Gateway turns off while under a taxing load
- You notice smoke in your power supply
- Computer will not start
