Ok, so I'm looking at buying a graphics card - looking at a 560ti which apparently uses 333w of power at max load. The thing I'm concerned about is my power supply. I have two power supplies - one running the motherboard and other accessories and one dedicated to a graphics card. They're both thermal master 350w power supplies - TM-350-PMSR. Even though one 350w is going to be dedicated to the GPU I'm worried there will be problems with the power supply.

TL;DR - Will a dedicated 350w power supply power a 560ti with no problems?

That PSU dedicated only to the GPU should be enough, but i would not overclock at all if i were you, which im sure your weren't. Although that setup is a bit risky since your PSU's are not 80 Plus bronze. wouldn't recommend it and would suggest you just get a single 500w corsair 80 plus bronze PSU. -CJ

Exactly what I wanted to hear. No bullshit and straight to the point.

Cheers for that, yeah. I'm looking at something similar to this http://www.trademe.co.nz/Browse/Listing.aspx?id=673178614 .

If that doesn't shoot up in price I'll grab it and ditch the twin psu setup.
