Can a psu 350w pure handle this?? proc: intel g3250
Vga: zotac Gtx 750ti 2gb gddr 5 singlefan
Ram: hyperX 8gb dual channel

Please help.

Yes, but your system will be nearly using all of it all the time. I'd get a bigger PSU.

Zerk2012 · Aug 23, 2016

That's about a 200 Watt PC should be fine.

ResistanceCore :

As long as it's a decent 350w you should be fine.

ResistanceCore · Aug 23, 2016

Hmmm.. btw the psu is not top brand "onepower" made in korean is it okay ?? I use for temporary time about 3-4 weeks waiting my lame psu back cause i warranty it. I use my pc only on friday-saturday-sunday for each 3hours a day then rest it for 3 hours too. is it okay?

ajpaolello :

Where are you calculating this stuff? That PC should be at about 110W when gaming.

Dark Lord of Tech · Aug 23, 2016

I would at least get a decent brand to run your setup.

ResistanceCore · Aug 23, 2016

Yeah my psu brand still in warranty and will done in 2-3 weeks again my Psu Corsair 450w vs. So i use an temprorary psu for playing on my pc is it okay?

pcpartpicker and with a full system.

turkey3_scratch · Aug 24, 2016

Those calculators are not good.

Samer1970 · Aug 24, 2016

I would go for 450 watts power supply for one reason , GOOD power supplies are almost the same price , 350 watts or 450 watts .. in the range 350-450 no big difference in price if a good quality one.

Dark Lord of Tech · Aug 24, 2016

Yes the VS 450W will be fine for now.

ajpaolello · Aug 24, 2016

turkey3_scratch :

Except they are? Because other sources got the same thing?

¯\_(ツ)_/¯

turkey3_scratch · Aug 24, 2016

You mean the other bad calculators?

I don't know what you don't understand about it. The Pentium uses very little power. The 750Ti is a 75W GPU. 110W is about what gaming load should be. 125W probably for maxed out machine. You are overestimating.

ajpaolello · Aug 24, 2016

Cooler master, Newegg, some other one that I forget. Although according to you I clearly know nothing

turkey3_scratch · Aug 24, 2016

The Cooler Master and Newegg calculators are the biggest over exaggerators in the land. I never said you didn't know anything. I didn't mean anything in an offensive way.

turkey3_scratch :

no no no ...

you need to add at least 50 watts minimum for motherboard , fans , memory , chipset , harddrive , DVD ...

The Right calculation is :

53 W CPU + 75 W VGA + 50 (minimum) , 178 watts min, you should add 20% over that total as well to be in the safe area .

turkey3_scratch · Aug 24, 2016

No samer you don't just add 50W. All the RAM together uses about 3W on the 3.3V rail. Fans are usually a couple of watts. Hard drive like 10. Who uses DVD drives? A motherboard with a Pentium like that should be about 15W, perhaps not even.

ResistanceCore · Aug 24, 2016

Hmm btw my fan i use deep cool gammax 300 , and btw its still disconcerting..and one more thing could i use 350w psu pure for temporary time until my psu Corsair 450w vs done from service center or no?

ajpaolello · Aug 24, 2016

You could possibly get away with that for the time being.

ResistanceCore · Aug 24, 2016

Thank you guys for all your solution. I appreciate all the answer i choose one just for follow the rules hehehe...
