Recommended power supply for i5 6500 with gtx 1050ti

Nicolas_30 · Dec 22, 2016

I currently have a 400w power supply with an i5 6500. I want to buy a gtx 1050ti but I am not sure if my power supply will be able to handle it. Should I buy a new power supply? (Low on budget...) here is the link of my computer (I changed the i3 to an i5) http://www.newegg.ca/Product/Product.aspx?item=N82E16883102136

It looks like that PSU is good for 330W at the +12V rails. Should be enough.
Can you look at the PSU's nameplate and verify that there are 2 x +12V rails rated for 330W?

What make and model PSU?

My psu is called cougar sl400 and I have a +12V1 for 330W and a second one. Also, I changed my mind and I got a 1060. Will it do the job or I need a new psu?

I would get at least a decent 450w fore the 1060.

But would my 400w do the job? Because I am low on budget...

Nicolas_30 :

The GTX 1050 Ti is a 75W card. Most need no 6-pin connection. Your PSU has the +12V specs to handle it. But yes, a high quality 400W would be better.
