[SOLVED] Which rail in the PSU is used by the GPU?

[prakhars962]

I am unable to understand which rail is used by the GPU?

I have a 600W PSU and wanted to know if the PSU can supply enough power to my RTX A5000 with a TDP of 230W.

How do you guy calculate the power supply to the GPU?

Here is the specs of the PSU:

It uses the +12 volt rail.

That is not a power supply I would use except in a low power PC.

Does that mean, theoretically it will supply 12*46=552W to the GPU? Only 48W reserved for others?

No the CPU and more run off the 12V rail.

The video card will only draw as much power as it needs at a given load.
The power supply only puts out the amount of power that the PC needs.
