[sean6919]

Hi all,
I recently bought a pre- built system which has a 300 watt PSU. will this cope with a 650 graphics card. if not what graphics card would work, if any?
thank you for any help in advance.

I was checking and it will work with that PSU but to be safe, I would recommend a minimum of 450W like this

YOUR BASKET
1 x XFX Pro 450W Core Edition '80 Plus Bronze' Power Supply £43.99
Total : £54.49 (includes shipping : £8.75).

However, we may as well see how good his PSU is.

OP - could you post a pic of the label on the side of the PSU giving details on what amps are on which rails?

Thank you gregster for the help. it's good to know that it will work with this PSU but will see about changing it aswell. may have to put the buy back a bit though. maybe easter ish. thanks again.

I will try to get a picture of the label on the side but i may only be able to do it tomorrow or saturday. i have college stuff to do unfortunately.

No probs but don't put it off indefinitely.

i wont put it off indefinitely but if it has to wait then i wont take the risk with adding other stuff until i can.
