Will this graphic card work with my computer?

PeterTLJr · Apr 19, 2013

I have a Dell Studios XPS (desktop) and I want to upgrade the graphic card to http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814202011 or something similar. Most of my computer specs you can find http://reviews.cnet.com/desktops/dell-studio-xps/4505-3118_7-33396858.html

I am not very good with computers so I don't know if the graphics card will work or not.

I have posted about it before and got mixed answers so I would like to get more before spending money.

Heres a link to a picture of the inside of my computer I have more if needed

It should fit. What is your PSU?

clarkjd · Apr 19, 2013

It should physically fit. The only concern might be the power supply. AMD recommends a 500 Watt PSU for the 7770 while your old card, a 4850, requires a 450 watt.

yeah, I'll be upgrading to a 650W PSU if this graphics card fits.

smeezekitty · Apr 19, 2013

You should be good to go. But if your PSU is atleast 350w you would probably be fine without changing it.

lol 350W would be fine if he never went over 50% gpu usage ...

PeterTLJr · Apr 19, 2013

yeah I needed a new PSU anyways so I decided to go with a 650. can I get some more input on the graphics card? had a few people say no saying I dont have the pci exp 16 slot.

The 7770 doesn't take more then 80w at max load.
