hello!
I recently got a gtx 760 as an upgrade to my rig, but I'm not certain the power supply will be enough. the requirements for a 760 is 500w with 30amps on the +12v rail. I have a 500w psu, but on it, it says I have 20a on the +12v1 and 20a on the +12v2. do I just add these up or what? any help is appreciated.

Could you please post the exact brand & model for your PSU?

But to answer your question, yeah you need to add those numbers so you seem to meet the requirements.

It will entirely depend on the make/model of PSU.

Nope, that's not a trusted unit. Not Recommend for stressful situations. May not be able to put out full rated power above room temperature, and may slightly fail to meet ATX specs. And may not meet the 30A of current combined on both +12V rail.
