Hey, I was just wondering what video card my psu could handle. It is 450w. For both of the 12v rails, it is a horrible combined 16.6 amps. It's model number is HP-450-G12S. I have a Intel Core 2 Duo E4600 @ 2.4Ghz, Two ethernet PCI cards, One 500gb 2.5" HDD I believe at 7200RPM, a 300gb 3.5" HDD at 7200RPM, and for now a Nvidia GeForce GT 610. For right now all I could afford is a GFX card, is there any good gaming card out there compatible with this PSU?

I agree that a 7750 would probably be in your best interests at that price point. As it requires a 400 watt minimum and you seem to be in a good range for that. Past a 7750 I would look into upgrading your system CPU, MOTHERBOARD, RAM as graphics increase they will need more power beside it to drive games.
