Hello, I just want to ask if my 300W PSU (I don't know what model :/)will be sufficient for:
MB: AMD A75 FCH
GIGABYTE GTX 1050 Ti OC 4G
A10 5700 APU
8GB RAM
(PC is Hp Pavilion 500-202ec)
Thank you!

Something like that, if the PSU can't handle it, since a GPU didn't use 75w all the time, u won't reach that 300 mark unless u start playing some heavy game

Of course :)
(well, when I look on your specs, everything is old, you know, not everyone have a lot of money)

Hi, I opened my PC and looked on the model. It's XQ004-B (yeah yeah, I know...). Well, I used an online caculator and my usage should be something about 230w BUT my PSU goes to 260w when 50 °C. So, is it still enough?
:/
 


260 with GPU / without?

if without:
seems like the AMD took so much power there, guess u had to buy a new PSU, while it can still be used, if the GPU suddenly need more power and pull more, ur whole PC might shut down

if with:
should be pretty fine

So if it will need more power, it'll just shut down?
