I am running my x51 with the Intel i7 3770 3.4GHz. 8GB RAM and a Nvidia GeForce GTX 660. I want to beef it up to run games like the Witcher on ultra and future proof it a bit. Dont mind spending a few hundred but Really don't want to mess about with the PSU or mother board (which is the stock x51) Will the
EVGA Nvidia GeForce GTX 970 run on it?
The psu is also stock. Its output is 19.5v 16.9amp so around 330 watts. I'm guessing its 500watt though
