HI friends...... :)
my rig is
intel core 2 duo e7500 2.93ghz
motherboard~ dg41rq
ram ~ 2gb ddr2 ( planning to upgrade it to 4gb)
screen resolution is 1366X768
power supply unit ~ zebronics 450w
with 192 watts on the +12V rail..
will my psu be able to handle radeon hd 6670 sapphire 1 gb ddr3 ?

thanks in advance....
 
Solution
U need atleast 174W and recommended 224W. So u might be able to get away with the 6670 but it is not recommended. I'll suggest to buy a decent psu and u will also have no limits on choosing a card(that's a really low end card)

what are the problems will i undergo with my zebronics psu?
thanks in advance

 


Zebronics isn't a recommended brand . It's a low quality psu

GPUs are the most power hungry component of a PC. Even every other component's power req. combined will not match the GPUs power req. That said the HD 6670 is a very low end card with very low power requirement.

The problems u might have are low performance. Under extreme load u might even get computer restarts,BSODs,etc
Very extreme load might even blow up your PSU. But the HD 6670 isn't a very power hungry card, so that might not happen. That's why i said u might be able to get away with it.
