So im trying to upgrade my old crappy pc
Here are my current specs
motherboard gigabyte p67a d3 b3
Nvidia gt430 2gb
Intel core i3 3.1 ghz
Psu 350w
ram 4gb
so im thinking of buying a gtx 650 ti boost and a better psu while keeping everything else the same
Will it work
anks everybody
 
Solution
The PSU is the weak link. Even a high quality 350W PSU would be marginal for that card. So yes, upgrade to a good quality PSU and you'll be OK. Any chance of moving to 8GB memory?

Be sure to install memory in MATCHED pairs in a dual channel system for best performance and a trouble-free experience. The pairs should match by brand, voltage, timings, size, etc. And the 2nd pair of slots should match the first set as well.
