hi all,
my father in law hag got a phenom 9550 x4 2.2ghz, biostar t-series mobo and a 430 w basic power supply.
he has been looking at gpu and was looking at getting a 4670 as he has not got a high budget and no pci-e 6 pic connecter.
i have found for a few pound more a hd 4850 with a 4pin molex to 6 pin pcie-connecter with it, but just wondered if the power supply would run this card and will it be ok through the adapter.
i have done a psu calculater on his system specs and added a few extra things ( extra hdd and fans ) and it only comes to 298 w.
what do you guys thing.
