Hello,

I am planning to build a new mini itx system in fractal design node 202. But, do not want to upgrade my GPU yet. I have a GTX 660 from old system.

My question is, can the power supply coming with that case (Integra SFX 450W 80 plus bronze) handle my gpu?

Anyone have tried this combination?

Yup you will do just fine. Your system should not pull more than 200W even at full load (even with locked i5). So even though its not a very high quality PSU, it should easily handle your system.

What CPU do you have. Unless it is something really power hungry like an OCed fx 8350, I believe you should do just fine.

It is compatible with the graphics card. It has atleast 18amp on the 12v rail which is enough for the GTX 660. It also includes 2 PCIe 8pin connectors, so you are fine with connectors.

It is compatible, though a better power supply would mean better protections against heat, surges, power outages, etc. Longevity for most of your parts and the PSU itself, electricity, and noise levels.
