Caris Posted April 13, 2007 Share Posted April 13, 2007 Right so, I'm looking into getting a 8800GTX for my Birthday but i only have a 500w PSU, its a Seasonic M12 and im wondering how it will cope with this card in terms of Power. Here are the specs of the rest of my PC. Core2duo CPU 2x120mm Fans X-fi Soundcard 3 7200rpm Hard drives DVD drive Memory Card Reader 2gig DDR2 So even if the PSU can cope with the new Card will i still have eough power left to OC and add PCI cards and more RAM etc or will i have reached my limit? Thanks in advance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
