Will this work on a slimline computer with only 250w and will it run Simcity 5

250w is on the low end. I assume your computer has a plug in port for graphics cards as some don't . On the surface doesn't seem like a good match. Check with the computer MFG first.

No... 450watts is a minimum... & a minimum of 600watts to CrossFireX or third monitor. I run 450 pushing a self-powered USB hub for add-on dohickeys like game pads, or e-sketch pad. It's a top of its class mid-level card... should push the new city on lower settings okay

I used to have a slimline, and this card is pretty big for the space you have on that pc, so I dont think that might work. that would be my concern. You might need to shop around more for one that is about the same quality and fit in the space without overheating and keeping up w/ the 250w and you should b ok to run simcity. Great choice of game btw :)

Since it's a low-powered card, you /might/ be able to get away with the 250W psu. And I can't speak for it's ability to fit in a slimline PC, would really depend on how everything is configured on the inside. Good luck!

I'm not sure of the fit with your slimline computer. It takes up two slots when plugged in (two metal things will popout from the back of the computer). It plays SimCity 2013 pretty darn well. Not on high high settings but high enough for me. I went from a 3.4 Windows experience to a 7.4 for graphics once this card was installed. I'm running a 360W PS. You will most likely be fine.

Yes, this can run WoW on max settings. As far as the minimum power rating I'm not entirely sure but I'm running it on a 650 watt power supply. Just make sure you have 2 6 pin connectors to connect to it (comes with 2 Molex to six pin adapters if you have 2 extra Molex connections).

Its ok. I can run Simcity on full and works great. Just make sure if you use it on battery mode that you change the settings so it's full power :)

I have the 650w version. It says on the box that could run two 75w graphic card and a 50w cpu. I have only one gtx 250 sli, with like 10 fans and several lights. It's running fantastic. However yours will require around 700w for two of those cards. I would recommend getting 750w for overclocking or even more expansion down the road. I'm jealous btw I'm sure that card is awesome.

Hey Ronel, I have a 750 watt power supply that I am using with this card. However, a standard power supply one with no less than 350 watts should be enough to run the card with no problems. I would recommend getting a 400 to 450 watt power supply if you will be using this card for gaming.

The minimum power supply listed on the box is 350W (350 Watts). There is a side note about having a minimum 12V current rating, as well, which I suspect applies to just about everyone with electricity. I use a 700W supply.As a side note, I do not recommend this video card if you wish to use it for gaming. It seems to work fine for most other things (streaming video, playing dvds, web browsing), but I found most of my games to be quite unresponsive even with severely lowered video and interface options.

I am using 400W power supply with this card and it works just fine. This card has pretty low power requirement especially since it has no cooling fans. This card is designed to be fully fanless by using bigger heat sinks. I mainly used it for the good performance, smaller profile and fanless design.Please let me know if you have further questions.

You will have to upgrade you PSU to at least 400w for to run some games, I would recommend a 600w or above. I have a corsair tx650 and it runs cool even with a lot of power demand.

The short answer is yes. A 860w psu will work fine. I am using a 750w in mine now and it previously powered two GeForce 465s in sli (those things sucked down power).

This card runs fine off just 300w. Anything larger than this will probably require a lot more, but this card requires only 300w. And yes, you're good so long as you have a pci-e slot.

I would not recommend this graphics card, get one with a fan, but if you really want this card, it will work with a computer asking it has about 300 watt powe supply

As long as you do not have several hard drives, or anything unusual in your system that is drawing extra power, then 600W is fine for this card. I would not personally go below 600W, but it will work.
1351899
Yes it will work. Just make sure you have a good quality power supply of at least 550 watts.
1618300
Yes, but you can also probably get away with less wattage if you don't have any graphics card with it, I would say look for a 250 watt power supply.

Depending on what else you have, and if you over clocking your CPU or the GPU it won't work. 750W is your best bet. I'm stuck in the same boat as you cause I'm trying to buy two but it won't work but I'm not trying to buy another PS

400 would be pushing it. I have a 600w and it does fine. I would say the minimum would be 500w but it really depends on your total power consumption system wide.

I remember correct I use 750W not sure if can run with sli or not i only got 1 card
