If a PSU says that its wattage is 500W, does it mean that it will consome the whole 500W even if the total consumption of your computer is just 350W?

Or the 500W means that the maximum output is 500W?

I'm kinda new to all this stuff and really don't know what the difference is. What is the difference between quad core and dual core processors?
I want to play big games like crysis and UT3.
I also run programs like adobe flash and photoshop.
Which one would suit me for these kind of things?

~thanks to anyone who helps me, much appreciated~

WE bought extra memory for our computer, and it was running super fast. Then my sister installed a program for her online class, and it was running soooooo slow. After she was done with the course, i uninstalled the program and the computer never picked up the speen again, if anything it is slower. I defraged, deleted temp files and the recycle bin. I tried everything. Why is the memory not recovered??

I'm trying to get The Sims 2 to work on my computer. Whenever I start it up, I get this message:

"Failed to find any DirectX 9.0c compatible graphics adapters in this system! Please make sure you have a DirectX 9.0c compatible graphics adapter and have installed the latest drivers provided by the manufacturer. The application will now terminate."

I know for a fact my computer has the latest DirectX installed, so the trouble is my video card, i'm assuming. It's a Diamond Fire GL1... it's a special card my dad uses to design stuff for his work. Does the game not regognize the card or something? What's going on? please help.

Computer is brand new...parts are brand new...I built it myself. Just finished building it today and when I turned it on it shut itself down. Sometimes it will last for 5 minutes, sometimes for 30 seconds. Although I have seen a pattern...whenever I try to boot from CD it will usually shut down. I have not even had a chance to install the OS yet.
