Will this PSU still work?

The PSU is one of the most important parts in the computer. It provides power to all components...faulty PSUs can fry your components, or just shut down because it can't keep up. Spending £484.95 on a computer with a no-name power supply can leave you with a useless pile of garbage that cost you £484.95. You can get a good PSU for around 10% of the price of your build....and feel confident that everything is ok.

That PSU you have is an off brand and low wattage, so it will have issues with the build if you add in a GPU.
A higher wattage (500w to 650w) and a name brand (Corsair, etc) should do you better.

It says that the build only needs 106w. If that is the case, surely 250w should be fine. I will be buying a GPU in the future, and I know I will have to buy another power supply. So 250w really won't cut it?

Thanks

Okay, thanks for your answer. I see your reason. I just really want my new computer and my parents won't even let me borrow £50! Thanks again for every bodies replies.
