Hi guys,
I have an HTPC build with a 300W micro-ATX PSU. The brand name is circle and it was built in the case when I had purchased it.
My processor is the intel i5-4430 3.00GHz. I don't have another GPU as I only use the built in iGPU.
I am looking to purchase this graphics card:

I have benched the peak load for my processor and it seems to be about ~90W. This leaves about 210W for the 1060.
I have seen the results where the max load for 1080p gaming is about ~90W. This leaves me about 120W free for the system to use.
I was wondering if my calculations are relevant and I should go ahead with the purchase?
