So I just got a free gpu from a friend and it seems like it's better than mine. I searched online and was seeing what the min watt requirements were and it was 400 watts. I have a 350 watt power supply and I was wondering by ANY chance that it would work. I'm not very good with knowing pc parts or requirements ect like this. Thanks!

IN response, a 350w psu should have at least one 6 pin, needed for a 660.
But
Such system will consume dangerously close to 350w, and ere aren't many good high quality PSUs that are only 350w. So ti brings up the question, what psu do you have, maker and model? That matters too.

i doubt a 350w would even have the proper pcie cables for it


so no

you REALLY want at least a decent 450w, ideally 500w or better

I've decided that I am getting a better power supply and my frind came over to help so I am set. Thanks a lot for the help (saying I shouldn't risk it). Thanks!
