I've got a 300w Chicony power supply? Is it reliable? I'm also using an i5 750, a PNY GTX 750Ti, 8GB DDR3 RAM, and a 1TB HDD. Would a 300W Chicony power supply be enough?

why do you ask if it will work, we already said that is not a good purchase, better avoid it than discover it can kill hardware

never save on the psu, buy a good psu, then save on other parts, that cannot kill the rest of the parts, ends in flames and create a sad situation

i never knew chicony made psus, surely they don't do it, chicony only did usb camera, keyboards, mouses, headphones and speakers, no psus

if you visit the chicony website, they don't even list any psu

they only list keyboards, mouses, cameras, that's it

the psu is not chicony, perhaps came with a old case + psu combo they sold and now is in your hands

is a cheap basic psu, not ideal for gaming at all

Chicony has also been an OEM for prebuilts in the past.
