CAN ANYONE PLEASE SAY WHETHER I REALLY NEED TO CHANGE SNMP FROM PRESENT 220 volts to enginner suggested 350 volts...????????

Any idea / suggestion / advice...????

p.s. I am from INDIA........................................

I am guessing he is meaning watt's. And with your current configuration is 220 watt's ok. It would all depend on how good the power supply is. I think I more demanding problem would be to get some more fans in there to get the heat out. There are really good power supplpies as I would go with Antec or Enermax, but I could not tell where to shop for them there. If you were going to but one I would go all out and just get a 500 watt power supply. A difference of problly a couple dollars US. But you seem to be heating up more so due to non suffient cooling. Buy a few case fans and a good heatsink and your temp will drop dramiticcly
