Hi,

Just purchased this HP

http://www.pcworld.co.uk/gbuk/desktop-pc-monitors/deskt...

I would like to change the supplied HD8470 graphics card for a HD6670 to run in dual graphics mode with APU 8570d supplied. Will the 300W power supply cope with this new card potentially drawing 30W more???

300 watt is enough for the 6670 :p

Thanks, I'm actually also considering scrapping the "dual graphics" and getting a low end ATI firepro. It's a general home use PC with light CAD use. Any thoughts on that arrangement??

I wouldn't get a low end firepro as it will run worse than the 6670/be more expensive.
