I have this Aspire 600w PSU for 3.5 years, my current PC draws only 150w and is a total waste of the PSU's potential, so I'm planning to finally upgrade some parts, especially add a Dedicated GPU. I am asking if this PSU can handle this kind of setup.

CPU: A6-3500 tri-core 2.1ghz FM1
Mobo: MSI A75MA -P35 FM1
GPU: Palit Stormx Dual GTX 750 ti 2BG GDDR5 (there are other better brands out there, but this thing is hella cheap here. Just $90)
CPU FAN: CM Hyper T4
HDD: Seagate 1TB 7200rpm
CASE FANS: 4 120mm Deepcool Case Fans
RAM: 2 4GB HyperX Fury DDR3 1600mhz (Planning to upgrade the CPU and Mobo too, buying a 2 4GB DDR3 1866mhz)




Heres a picture from the PSU's voltage and watt details

It depends on if your PSU has held up over the years and is still pushing around 600w, but as far as the total system load that you will be taking on with the new components, you are still going to have a lot of overhead in your system and should be perfectly fine. As always, make certain that no caps are blown and that the PSU is dust free prior to installation for maximum efficiency. (No, it should not blow up. 😛 )
