This is a bit of an embarassing story but I need help.
I just received a new graphics card that I ordered online (Nvidia gtx 560), and I made a huge mistake by not checking the wattage, the gtx 560 needing 500 watts and the PSU I have is 400 watts. So im going to have to buy a new PSU and so this is my question:
How many watts do I need to run my whole computer just fine? I was thinking 600 watts would be enough, but I need opinions here, and do I just simply change my PSU, or do I have to take anything else into account? Sorry for these newb questions, I just got into building PCs and this is my first time to replace my graphics card/replace my PSU.
