Can I use this AC adapter to upgrade my PSU on my ASUS ROG G20?

So around I year ago I decided to upgrade my ASUS ROG G20, I replaced the GTX 760 with a GTX 1070 founders edition.
The PC comes with 2 power bricks, one 230w, and one 170w.
I have not realized until recently that my card isn't getting enough power, and it's causing random fps drops, dropping from 60+ to 10-15 fps.
Would I be able to replace the 230w with this 330w to get the minimum power requirement of 500w for my GTX 1070?

This is something to ask asus directly as incorrect amperage/voltage can cause issues down the line. Manufacturer should be able to tell you best what cable with psu to use for the console pc if you have to increase overall wattage.
 
If you google ASUS ROG G20 330W Adapter several threads will come up with peopel discussing the very same thing, and it seems some have done it with no problem. I can guarantee you it will VOID the warranty of the machine in every way but wont comment if it will harm it, you will have to take that risk if you decide its safe or worth it.
 


I already voided the warranty a while back. So nothing to lose, other than money, of course. Thanks anyways.
