[SOLVED] Will this be fine? An RX 550 with a 240w psu?

[Oragirimono]

Rx 550 with a recommended 400w psu (no powerconnector needed) but I have a 240w power supply. Will this work or will it break my gpu and all the other components?

The direct answer is NO. Though just to entertain us, list your specs and the make and model of your PSU, like so:
CPU:
Motherboard:
Ram:
SSD/HDD:
GPU:
PSU:
Chassis:
OS:

I'm guessing it's a prebuilt system seeing that 240W mentioned above.

240 W? It's been a while since I saw a PSU so small...

I know I saw a Dell office machine Core 2 Duo (from 2006?) w/ one that small.....
