That's just enough to run your pc without any extra's. A decent graphics card needs at least a psu of 400-600W depending on the card ( higher performance -> higher powerneed ) http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/document?docname=c01409558&tmp_task=prodinfoCategory&cc=us&dlc=en&lc=en&product=3708937 Upvote 0 Downvote
