VisionTEK HD 7750 1GB DDR5 On Dell Inspiron 580s (250W PSU)

[MayankTheTechGuy]

Hi to the community. I wanted to ask as to if this card can work in the Inspiron 580s (Slimline Model)
(Amazon Link : http://www.amazon.com/VisionTek-Radeon-Express-Graphics-900503/dp/B007ADEPX8/ref=sr_1_3?s=electronics&ie=UTF8&qid=1383743557&sr=1-3&keywords=visiontek+HD+7750)

Slimline has a 250w psu, so you will need a low profile card that doesn't need extra power connections.

250W psu?? expect problems

It will work, but have found a better card, the HIS has build quality issues.

Only uses about 50w of power @ 100%, so psu won't get stressed.

If a card doesn't have an external PCI-E power connector, the max it can pull is 75 watts. YMMV
