Hello!
I recently bought a new Geforce GTX-760 graphics card for my PC. I now noticed that the recommended requirements state I need minimum 500w power supply, and my pc only has a 460w power supply. The graphics card does work and I can play games with it (except Crysis 2, it keeps shutting down randomly while playing).
The question, is it necessary to get a new power supply or can I stay with the one I already have?
If I do need a new one, what do you recommend for my PC, how to know which one is compatible with the motherboard?
Here are my specs:
Computer: HP Pavilion Elite HPE-450f PC
Intel Core i7-870 Processor
GTX760-DC2OC-2GD5 Graphics Card
8GB DDR3 system memory
1TB Hard Drive
MS-7613 (Iona-GL8E) Motherboard
460W Power supply
