Hello,
I am about to receive the ASUS gtx 570 card, but i only have a Corsair cx 400w psu, so i was wondering if it is possible / safe to run that card on my system for a short period of time until i get a better more powerfull PSU?
My specs are as follows;
Asus P8Z68 Deluxe/gen3
Intel i7 2600K
16GB (4x4GB Corsair vengenace 1600Mhz CL8)
1x WD 320 GB s-ata 2.0 HDD
I have been running my specs through the Thermaltake PSU calculator, and it looks like i might be able to pull it off, if my GFX does not go over 80% load.
But i figured i would ask some of the more tech savvy guys here if i should proceed or not.
Thanks for your time
