Gtx 750ti 4gb windforce 2

[Kyledaltan]

Hi everyone just wondering if some one could help me out please? I have a
WINpower ad-e500ae-a5/a6 PSU

Just wondering if I used a 2 molex to pcie converter to plug it into the gtx 750ti would it be okay?

I am worried because I've read a gtx 750ti needs a minimum of 20 amps so the fact that my psu has 2 molex connectors putting out 14 amps each would that work okay?

Thanks Kyle.

Stay away from that. And get a better PSU so you don;t regret not doing so later.
Here's a good deal: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16817151096&nm_mc=AFC-C8Junction&cm_mmc=AFC-C8Junction-PCPartPicker,%20LLC-_-na-_-na-_-na&cm_sp=&AID=10446076&PID=3938566&SID=

It would work- 750Ti uses ~60W, which is 5A x 12V, with spikes maybe to 10A, and no more. That PSU, however, is not the most reliable.

Thank you, so it would be okay to run the adapter for now until I purchase a recommended psu?

I would run it. For a PC that is not powerful, and is used just for gaming- risk is small.

I vote "no". That PSU should be replaced ASAP and regardless of the GPU.
