I was told by the person who installs all my PC parts, that for me to get a stronger PSU, I would need a new motherboard, because if I added any more power into it, it would fry it.

I can't seem to get too much of a solid answer out of Dr Google, and none of the people I know have the answer either.

That's bullshit. You can connect any mobo to 1.5Kw PSU and it will work fine. A PSU needs at least some consumer so it does not fry itself but any mobo will be enough.

I think you should start installing your own parts rather than delegating to a retard.

Power Supplies dont push power to the system, the system pulls power from the supply.
Building computers is not difficult, you should consider learning how to do it yourself.

As stated, he is most likely lying to you. You can attach any PSU to any motherboard that follows the same ATX standard. The only way you could fry a motherboard like this is if you add a higher watt PSU and try to overclock your CPU\GPU too much. This will pull more power through the motherboard. If the mobo is not meant to handle this much voltage, you could actually damage the motherboard this way.

If you are trying to add a high end video card, and thats the reason you need a stronger PSU, there may be issues there where the motherboard only supports PCI-E 2.0 and you are adding a PCI-E 3.0 card or something. Everything should still work though.

He's just trying to jew you into buying a new motherboard, you could connect it to a 1.21GW psu and it would still only draw what it needs.
