Hey, I recently bought a MSI 9600 GT overclocked videocard. it says on the box it requires 26 amps, my psu gets a warning saying not enough power, it is a 585watt dual rail 19 amp on 1 rail and 20 amp on the other.

Will this PSU work? 575watt single rail 26 amp. http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E168...

Here's the PSU that said it didn't have enough power. http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E168...


Please tell me if this new PSU will work! im desperate!!!

Thanks.

Starting another new thread isn't going to change the responses.
You've purchased lousy low quality power supplies, but either one of them should provide more than enough power for your system.

Thanks.

The only time I've seen the low power warning is when the 6 pin power connector isn't connected.

REMEMBER if you buy cheap,,you get cheapted,you get what you pay for,the psu is the single most important part of any computer,you should expect to pay $50-$60us at the least for a good brand name psu...:)

You NEED to save a little and grab a decent, brand-name PSU. Brands like Corsair, PC Power & Cooling, Thermaltake, or Antec. A 380watt Antec Earthwatts is likely much better than the PSU you have and the one you posted.
