hi, I'm pretty much a noob when it comes to things like Graphics Cards and stuff like that on PC so I have no idea if mine is capable of running this card to its full potential. My PC is a FreshTech AMD A8, link here http://www.amazon.co.uk/Freshtech-F2A68HM-HD2-Motherboard-Performance-Barracuda/dp/B00PB20XR2/ref=sr_1_6?ie=UTF8&qid=1440709854&sr=8-6&keywords=gaming+pc, and I want to get a new card for it. I've been looking at the GTX 760 but I don't know if I my PSU will be capable, if I have enough Amps or if my computer can handle it, any help would be appreciated.

I have a 500 watt PSU in my computer but I think it only produces 22A and the cards minimum requirements are 500 Watt and 30A. Is it not a good idea to run it or will it be ok ?

I got a reply from them saying that its too powerful for my PSU and that it will void my warranty, they said the best gaming card I can get for such a low powered PSU is the GTX 750Ti. Is that any good of a card ?

yes, i would suggest a gtx 950 though if you have the budget.


it only needs a single 6-pin cable from your power supply and is very efficient.
