This card is not heavy duty gamer card. The power consumption need medium level only. If you have 400Watt power supply in your PC is adequate. Thanks Copystars Support

Assuming you have power to the power supply, the power supply most likely needs to be replaced. I would check for a loose connection before I ordered a replacement. Turn off the power before you go poking around with a screw dirver :)

I suggest that you try to contact the seller or the manufacturer and ask them about a new power supply.

Considering the PS is actually a 600watt powersupply, item lists for a 650 but you actually get a 600w power supply. That being said, hard drives dont take up to much power but you may want to upgrade the PS anyway for more power adapters, i would get a modular power supply so its easy to add upgrades and additional stuff to your computer as you go.

the wattage should be fine but you also need supplemental power plugged directly into this card from the psu.

You need upgrade your power supply and i think you need 800 watt for more stability

No, I do not. I bought it for a friend and will try to find out. I think that I actually ended up with a similar but more powerful power supply.

From memory a 400 Watt PSU is needed. I went 500 Watts just so I could have a little extra.

Hi Michelle, I have not gotten one but I believe if you get the adapter to convert the old power interface to the new it should work perfectly.

Yes. That's the exact card I upgraded to and it didn't need a power supply. Easy install with the interior layout of the Hellion.

Yes. It should be fine. You have a PCI express X 16 slot and unless you've beaten the crap out of the computer or you already have a bunch of attachments your PSU should still have enough juice to power it?

No. I tried this when I switched from my Rosewill to this PSU and it would not power on. The pinouts are different on the PSU than what you're probably using so you would need to replace them with the cables that come with the PSU.

There are plenty replacement power supplies. They need to be SFX form factor as stated on the company's product page,http://www.apextechusa.com/products.asp?pID=171.

My PSU burned up when I turned it on for the first time. It's not a brand-name unit.

The power supply in your machine could be problematic. You should research that issue!

Check power requirements for your new graphics card. Chances are you will also need to upgrade the power supply.
