More Information

Hi,

I have an iStart 2311, http://www.packardbell.co.uk/produ [...] 1-802.html

It is only a few months old and has the following specs:

1 x 160GB SATA HD
2 x 1GB DDR2 RAM
AMD Athlon 64 X2 4000+ Processor
nVidia 6150SE Integrated Graphics
Factory 240W PSU

My question is: I have a Radeon X1600 Pro 512MB PCI-E, which I wish to insert into this computer. I know that the factory 240W PSU will not handle this because I blew the processor in my previous iStart 1379 doing this. I have, however, also got a 450W PSU here that I can insert into the computer. My question is, will the 450W PSU be powerful enough to run the system with the X1600 graphics card installed?

Thanks, Adi.
