Good day,,

I just want to know if i would be able to run a Zotac GTX 660 without any problems on my system that is being run by a Cougar SL 500w PSU?? The Zotac GTX 660 requires at least 450w w/ 24amps on the 12v rail.. Cougar SL 500 have dual 12V rails (12v1 ~19amps and 12v2 ~20amps).. Please help me on this matter because i really want to buy a new video card..

Here Are My System Specs:
CPU: Intel Core i3-3220 3.3 Ghz
MB: Gigabyte GA-B75M=HD3
RAM: Corsair Vengeance 4G 1600Mhz
HDD: Seagate ST500DM002
Soundcard: ASUS Xonar DS
CASE: Cougar Spike
PSU: Cougar SL 500
Video Card: none yet..

Hi Kenneth,

The power supply that you have is a dual rail, that should be fine. Just make sure to plug in the pci-e connector on the card and uninstall any drivers of the old card you are using prior to the installation of Zotac 660.
