Can my Thermaltake SMART 550

Handle my XFX Radeon HD 5770 Graphics card? The Power supply needs to be able to handle 34 amps, which is the part that I am a little unsure about by looking at the specs.

Thanks so much

hd 5770 needs only one 6 pin power connector and 425W good psu ,draws up to 108W . . your psu has 2x(6+2 pin) so no problem. 42Ax +12V=504W on +12V rail .More than enough.

Where did you get the data that it needs to handle 34 amps? The XFX Radeon HD 5770 only uses 73w or equivalent to 6 amps on the 12v rail. Your PSU will definitely handle that GPU.

Great thanks for your help guys. Game-Debate.com has a section to compare GPU's and it said that it would require 450 watts & 34 amps. Glad that it can handle it though.
