Minimum Wattage for Power Supply?

James Rinzler · Oct 2, 2013

I recently bought a new computer, it's very good except for one fatal flaw... The Power Supply
it is the CyberPower Gamer Ultra Gua380
the specs include
AMDFX-4100 3.6 GHz Processor
1TB HDD
8 GB RAM
Nvidia GeForce GT 610 Graphics

however the power supply I've been told is not good enough to run with the rest of the items in the computer, the provided power supply is 350 Watts
what is the minimum wattage I would need? I was thinking like 500 watt.

350W should be sufficient for that system. But the question is whether it's a good 350W PSU or a terrible one. You can't tell quality from the wattage rating (and with bad power supplies, they lie about the wattage the unit can deliver).

the dimensions of the computer are
Dimensions: 16.8 x 8 x 19.1

Pretty sure it's an ATX case, so yes it will fit. So would any other ATX power supply.

There may be no need for a new power supplier, you just need to let us know what make and model the current one is.
