Compaq 6200 Pro Support for GTX 760 / 770

[rlakhani11]

Hi,

Just wanna know if these two GPUs are supported on this ancient PC. If yes, please suggest the minimum capacity of the PSU that I should go for.

750 Ti seemed to be a bit underpowered based on the games I intend to play on it.

I've changed the default SFF casing to a micro-tower one.

Specs:
i3-2120 3.3 ghz
4GB RAM
320W PSU

Thanks very much.

i think 320w psu should be able to drive the 750 ti without issue.
i don't think you want to run a 760 just off the generic 320w psu, the card is allow to draw 170w of power and nvidia recommends 500w psu as minimum.

you would need to get a better power supply for 760 and 770

You're right it should. But only low-profile 750 Tis. But I'm having a hard time getting my hands on one of those. The only used ones available are the standard ones with 6-pin connector requirement which this OEM PSU does not have. May be they require more wattage than low-profile ones.

How much PSU capacity I should aim for, to support 760 / 770, or even the standard 750 Ti, let's say "Asus 750 Ti 2GB OC Edition"?


Thanks very much.

this asus 750ti require a 6pin pcie connector, i think 300~350w should be enough, but you need to have like 25A on the 12V rail to be safe.

760 you need 500w+, psu needs to have 2 6pin pcie connector
770 you need 500w+, psu needs to have 1 6pin and 1 8pin pcie connector.

if you are budget tight, you can buy a 500w bronze psu, such as evga 500b or cx 550 for about 50 USD. both of them has 2 (6+2pin).

however if you invest that much into a psu or somethings, maybe you can just get a 1050, it should be somewhere between 750ti and and 760. you can get a low profile and they don't have 6pin requirement.

Planning to get a low-profile 1050Ti.

Great, make sure it’s a version of 1050ti that doesn’t need 6 pin connector. Enjoy your new card.

Exactly.

Thanks a lot man.
