HD 7770 or HD 6850

TellMeICanRun6850 · Jul 15, 2017

I have Platinum MS 400ATX P4 400W psu , my friend said i have only about 80-90W for a graphic card . I really really really want to get AMD Radeon HD 6850 Gigabyte edition , also i have an option to get AMD Radeon HD 7770 Sapphire GHz Edition, 7770 is a little cheaper but from what i've seen , the 6850 is way better , could my PSU handle it ? And im getting that 250W Thermaltake graphic card PSU for a few days , what is ur opinion?

If you are getting a better power supply in a few days, then wait till you get it and then get the card you want. Thermaltake is not really know for good quality power supplies, and are you sure you mean 250 watts? Seems very low.

no

the 7770 is a bit better than a 6850

you may have mixed it up with a 5770

No , sorry , i didnt explain it nicely. Its like an another power supply , u put it where the disc is , each time u turn on ur pc , u have to switch it to on. its only connected to graphic card so graphic card gets power supply only from that power supply , sorry for bad english , hope u understood

That is not a good idea to add a second power supply when you can replace that MS power supply with a good model. You have a poor quality power supply, which is never good for a computer. Why spend money on a second power supply when you can get a single one that is good? You are adding more complexity and leaving a poor quality power supply in the computer. It is not a 400 watt power supply, it's about a 200 watt power supply, the main power should be on the 12V rail, in that MS unit that is under 170 watts.
