Hello,
I'm looking to Zotac gtx 460 (768mb) with a Chieftec-Delta DPS 300AB-9B 300W power supply. I have slim pc case, and I need to buy SFX power supply (good power supply is too expensive fore me). Here's the specs:

Specs:
AC input: 115 VAC / 230 VAC 4.5~8A 50-60 Hz
+3.3V: 18A
+5V: 18A
+12V1: 11A
+12V2: 14,5A
+5VSB: 2A
-12V: 0,4А.
Combined maximum peek output +3.3V / +5V: 230W (+12V is 360W)
Combined maximum rated output +3.3V / +5V & +12V: 460W


Will the amps be enough for the gtx460? will the card receive enough power?
 
Solution
A GeForce GTX 460 needs 26 amps on the 12v + rail and at least a 450-500 watt power supply usually with 2 - 6 pin PCIE power connections.

That power supply isn't sufficient to run a 460.


You won't find a sufficient SFX supply.

+5V – 14 A,
+12V1 – 18 A,
+12V2 – 18 A,

+5VSB – 2 A

+12V combined: 300W
