Is this PSU enough for this card?

Oh, I can get less than that, but rebates take arround 7-8 weeks usually, and come in prepaid credit card form most likely. You can expedite them, but that takes about 10-20 percent of the rebates off to get them in 2 weeks if you don't mind the rebates then this sacrifices 5 dollars to save 15 in rebates.

Little bit more, but will blow away anything 15 dollars below it. If You can stand rebates.


Edit: this card may not fit, Sorry i'm checking now.

Mind posting up a contingency list if you can?, My Mom is buying the parts for me(Asian parents have a tough time trusting their kids with tons of cash for some reason or maybe its just in general) anyways the reason behind my really low budget is because $100+ is already breaking her heart and possibly her bank account and I don't plan on upgrading this PC piece by piece I'm just aiming to get my FPS a bit higher so I can last till I end up building my own PC(which won't be for a while).


Originally I was looking at 7750s like

or

since they wouldn't need a PSU upgrade

According to your post I assume you already own the computer in question. I could not find specific specs (a little bit tired and inattentive) if the computer can fit a card with the following dimensions, 7.8" x 4.4" x 1.5", as with the card listed, you could fit it in your computer. I also forgot to mention it comes with two free games.

Yeah, I was unable to find any other site that listen the specs for this PC except for the one in the OP and this one

What specifically do you want? I am very sorry it is late on my end and sleep has been evasive the past few days, I also understand that budget is very tight I was just trying to give you the best value for your money, however money can only be spent once and keeping budget is important and will try to help about that.

Edit: Reason forgot to finish sentence.

I'm looking for the most bang for my buck without breaking the bank, sorry if it sounds a bit contradictive.
So I'm assuming a 7750 would be more in my market, I guess the question now is which one should I go with?
(Although I saved your list in the miraculous event that I manage to save/receive that much money.)

Yeah, I am a sucker for mail in rebates so sorry about that (saw 200 before rebates and I woke up a little bit). I can find a 7770 for about 90 with no rebates. (Cheapest before rebates)

Also 7750 aren't much less, but if you truly need to stay under budget, just get a 7750 and no psu.

gddr5 and high baseclock: 98 dollars

It would be best if you could upgrade psu and get 7770, but I think you would be fine if you just got a 7750 on your stock psu as its 300 watt and you could probably get away with it.

Oh wow $119 after rebate, This looks pretty good actually I'll give it a try tomorrow since it's getting a bit late now. Here's to hoping the rebate comes in fast! and also thanks for putting up with me! This is my first time buying new parts so I wanted to make sure it was worth every cent.
