I bought an asus gt 630 2 gb 2 days ago.
its coming today. But im scared if my psu will be able to handle this gpu.
My specs are.
intel e4500 2.2 ghz core 2 duo
2 sticks of 2 gb ram= 4 gb ddr2 667 mhz
160gb seagate hard drive . sata
intel D945GCNL mobo
1 optical drive
1 cabinet fan
My psu states 450 w but its only 14A
on the 12volt rail and 20A on the 5 volt rail. so i guess its an overrated one.
Plz confirm that my psu can handle that gpu cause i dnt want to burn my pc.

The GT 630 is powered by the PCI-E slot which provides only 6.25 amps from the +12v rail. That leaves plenty left over for the rest of your hardware. No need to worry.

Yeah, I can agree with theonerm2, it will run with no problem.

Another Odyssey.
No, I wouldn't recommend it. That PSU is not supposed to power a decent card. I had problems with my 210 on it.
