I'm a fans of Christ Robert's Wingcommander series and would eager to support and join the Star Citizen community. My system is currently using GeForce 210 and is unable to run the game. Because of budget, and lacking of knowledge & skill to change my PSU myself, I am planning to buy the low power consuming Zotac GTX 950 AMP! Edition.

My system is as follows:
Core i7 860 2.8GHz
12G RAM
One 3TB HD
One 1TB HD
PSU: just 350W.......(but with a free 6-pin connector)
A picture of my PSU:

Will it be too harse for my system to handle a Zotac GTX 950 AMP! Edition?

Thanks!

Your psu is a Dell OEM Chicony manufactured PSU. Dell picks good PSU so you should be fine but boarderline. 350watt is recommended by Nvidia but your i7 is a 95watt part. so your system will run about 300watts at load with your two HD

The picture contain the details spec of my PSU that I don't understand. Sorry for that.
The label on the PSU states:
Brand: Chicony
Model: CPB09-001A
DP/N: G192T
UP/N: D350P002L
DC output
Max output power: 350W
(With some other mysterious voltage/Amp figures that I don't understand.)

Just try to repost the picture's link:https://www.dropbox.com/s/qzfyrcb2k8ppz88/IMG-20160128-WA0000.jpg?dl=0

Thank you very much.
