will this card not work on a 220w psu or will i need at least a 300 psu for this card ?

Not sure if this helps but I am using it on a Dell Optiplex 780 with a 235w power supply with no problems.

I had a 350w with no problems. Depends on the CPU your using. I had an i5-660 with 4GB Ram. This card uses about 80-90 watts at full load.

It only has 300w P/S. I believe the card you want requires a minimum 500w, 600w is recommended.

Yes it will work. I was running mine on a 500W psu. You won't get the PCI-e 2.0 speed from the card with a PCI-e slot, but it will still work.

no it's not. You need at least 550W to get the full potential of this card.

This would be a great card but you might want to go to a power supply calculator to see if you psu can handle this card and everything else you have.

Hi,the right questions is, can a 300w power supply handle this motherboard?,the answer is yes,but you need to take into account,that your are going to be very limited if you want to install high consumption devices like graphic cards or 8 cores processors,i suggest to use a more powerfull PSU,at least 500 Watts for better performance.

It should work, if anything, at least make sure your PSU is reliable. I had this card running with a 65W CPU on a 300W PSU

Presumably yes, if all your system components are in perfect working condition, but you must check with the manufacturers of the components to be sure. I make no guarantees on compatibility. If you have a poor PSU, perhaps not. You also need 2 - 8pin connectors to power this card.

Depends on the rest of your hardware. This card uses 150w, you will have to calculate the rest on your own. Minimum recommended is 500w.

Yes it will. It may say 350W supply but you can get away with 300W with little to no performance drop off.

It should work. I have a stock psu and it works fine. It is a low consumption card

I think it will work. I didn't try it with a 500w power supply. But you can check it with yourself by checking the ampearage. Check the ampearage of the +12v rail. If it have a value of more than the card requires it will good to go..

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.

Make sure that you listen for buzzing noises which might mean that the card is pulling too much power. It should work fine with a 300 to 350w power supply but the recommended wattage is 450w.

I believe the minimum wattage as stated by manufacturer is 500. But, yes, 600 watts should work for you. I'm currently using the card with a 600 watt PSU with no problems.

It works just fine with my 220w PSU but of course, I don't have a fancy setup. One hard drive, one cd/rw drive, quad-core processor, two sticks of ram (4gb), etc. So I would say that as long as you have a modest build, you can cut it with 200w but I would recommend 220w to be safe. Of course, the more power you have, the more you can be at ease.
