Hello,
I'm wondering if my 3 year old Corsair VX450 will handle my new configuration, since I'm on a rather tight budget.
My main concern is the VGA - ASUS EAH6950 2GB. The various tests I've seen on the internet say it draws about 330W on full load. Now the PSU's 12V rail states it has 396W (33A).
Is it possible to measure my PSU's current 12V rail state - if it still can put out those 396W?
And what can be the results for my system if the PSU won't be able to handle it?
The other parts are an i5-2400 CPU, 2x4GB Kingston HyperX T1, Asus P8P67 PRO MB, 1 SATAII HDD, 5x 120mm + 1x 92mm fans.
