Hi, I'm thinking of getting myself a Dell optiplex 790 and adding a Nvidia GTX 960 to create a cabable little gaming rig. However, although with a full PC to work with, I already have some RAM, a mobo and a case to play with ontop of the CPU I'd have with said PC. This means I won't have to dismantle my other PC's for parts, the thing is, with the new GPU I'm planning to add to the dell I'm not sure if I'd get away with the stock dell PSU or it'd go bang and fry it's guts and then I'd have to use my EVGA 420w PSU which I'm not keen on doing for 2 reasons - 1. It'd mean putting another rig out of action before shelling out for a new PSU. 2. I'm not sure 420w would be enough for the dell.
So, to clarify, would I get away with the dell PSU (this is answer I'm hoping for as it'd be a bonus) or would I have to use my EVGA power supply in the dell rig?
