Will a 450 watt antec psu be able to run a 560ti and i5?
I might oc the cpu later on and will probably grab another 560 ti by the end of the year.
Thx

you'd want at least 650watts minimal with sli. I'd suggest 750 watts.

but for single card, you should be fine as long as you don't OC.

I suggest you go AMD to be safe as their cards are less power hungry.

upgrade your psu if you are planning to OC and getting SLI

Yes, it will run at stock settings. If you're not overclocking until the power supply upgrade, you'll probably be OK.

How's it doing ?
I'm a year out of warranty, seen several different configurations , and spent a good bit of time on the bench ( lots of plugging and unplugging modular connectors )
Still quiet, still in spec :)

Hey newbie1337, 50a on the 12v , but it's a discontinued model
Plenty of others out there though
