So recently I have been willing to buy a Low Profile GT 1030 to fit my needs of gaming. I am wanting to run CS:GO, Fortnite, Overwatch, etc. I only have a 240 Watt PSU, but I have a PCI and PCI-e slot, it can also fit into my PC. My question is if I can use the graphics card with a 240 watt PSU.

PC Specs:
Intel Core i5-2400 CPU @ 3.10 GHz
8 GB DDR4 RAM
OEM Motherboard for HP
240 Watt HP PSU
64-Bit OS - Windows 10 Professional
ASUS Monitor

I am only 13 and I unfortunately have only enough money to buy the GT 1030. Thanks in advance for any help!

Are you sure it won't burn anything? Because when I went to Canada Computers they said I would need a 300 watt PSU, and I'm quite scared my PC will burn.

Yes you can, they said you need 300 watt psu but that recommended, they use harware that need alot of power to determine that. Now its not a GTX 1030 is a GT 1030, and canada computers is trynna make you spend more money
