Hey everyone i am quite new to the updating my graphics card thing, but I recently bought a Visiontek Radeon HD 7770 used from amazon. Unfortunately in my very own stupidity i didnt check pc requirements. I had to get this card used because i had little to no money to spend and now i have almost no money whatsoever. My psu is 300w on my computer but the actual recommended psu for the certain card seems to be higher and lower depending on the website. I need a real answer as to what the watts needed for this card is because i do not have enough money for another psu. Thanks!

Depending on the specific model of your card, you will need a 400W or greater for a single card, and 550W or greater for CrossFire. I'm assuming you are using the 400949-001 model, for which this information is for.
