Hi. This is my computer that i built two years ago.
x2 3800
2gb ddr 400
sata II 300gb
40gb ide
samsung sata burner
2 ide burner
asus a8nvm-csm
ultra vseries 500w
radeon x300 (got for free).
The problem is DMC4 requires 3.0 pixel shader, so I have to get a new one. I want to get the 4850 which requires 450W, and I have 500W, but my 12V rail is only 28amps and the psu only has one 4 pin pci express cable. I can get a 4 to 6 pin connector, but the idea of using a connector doesn't sound very safe. Do I need to get a new psu? Thank you for your time.
