Asus rog g20 aj

[Chris Miller]

I have recently bought an asus rog with i7 and gtx 750 and i am wanting to upgrade the gpu to a gtx 970, the problem is i cant seem to find a 180 watt power supply as mine only came with the 230 watt and i need both to run the upgrade.
If anyone knows where i can get the correct power supply in British pounds i would be grateful.

You definitely don't want a 180W power supply...
I would buy a 500W power supply and completely replace your old 230W. Here's one for 40 pounds: http://www.scan.co.uk/products/500w-evga-bronze-500b-80plus-bronze-single-rail-atx-psu

I think you have misunderstood what i meant as the asus ROG G20 has external power supplies not internal and i need the second power supply to run a gtx 970.

OH. I kind of ignored the title since I wasn't sure what an Asus G20 was. That looks like a sick computer though!

So it looks like your computer has a port to plug in a 230W and a 180W power cord. And you said you have a 230W one.
I do not know for sure, but this is likely what you need:

And here is one from MSI that's on scan(since you asked for pounds), looks to be the same thing just different brand:

If you could get a good picture of the power port, I could tell you more or less for sure whether that will work

Would like to update that according to the power supply specs found here:

The MSI one from Scan has the same exact specs and should work perfectly.

Yes i Just got a gtx 970 and bought a 180 watt power supply to go with my other. To be honest its just a laptop charger lol. Hope this helps?
