So I opened up my old PC and threw in a gt710 to upgrade from a Intel 4500mhd , it sorta worked.after a turning off my PC after playing far cry 2 for a break, the PC didn't want to power on.It powered on for a minute ,turned off suddenly, again trying to power it on , it worked for a minute but no display , again tried powering it. Now it just turned on for 10seconds 5 and it didn't turn on

The PSU I was using was an old antec? PSU with no rating 300W.
After replacing it with a generic 450W it worked like a charm.

Now since that gt710 has a 19 w tdp and failed with such a low profile card... Will this PSU support a 1030?
I'm going to upgrade to a q6600 and I don't know if the q6600 draws more power than the old core2duo e4600.

Will it blow up again?
