Hi guys,
I am planning on putting a GTX 580 into my shuttle having sold the gtx 680 (didnt need the extra gaming power) but wanted to know if it will strain the system.
I am a total noob when it comes to PSU's and wattages and but I can see that the recommended PSU for a GTX 580 is 550 watts.
However, the shuttle I am using only has no dvd drive, one hdd and a few usbs connected to it so surely having a GTX 580 in there will be fine?
The 680 was fine and but I know the 580 uses a lot more power so would love to hear your thoughts on installing a 580 into the machine.
Thanks in advance!
