Cpu+graphics Card=new Psu??

XION · 08-01-2007, 03:00 PM

i have a 600w OCZ stealth PSU and im running a c2d ex 6800 and a 7600gt and all the other usuals and it runs fine. i recently bought a 8800gtx, will my PSU be able to handle that?

I see no reason why it shouldn't. If the wattage and amperage suggested for the video card are higher... then yeh it'll run.
EDIT: just checked the specs on that psu... should run fine.

should be fine, there is actually huge headroom on most high end psu's. they kind of become inconsistant if you push them, its ifne if ur not an oc junky.
