Hi all.
I've recently ordered a EVGA GTX560 Ti (SUPER OC), and it's gonna be delivered tomorrow morning.
I'm really excited to FINALLY have an upgrade from my 8600GT, however I'm worried my PSU isn't good enough.
I have a 500W Apex (http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16817154026&Tpk=al-d500exp)
I had bought it in anticipation of the card, because the card said it requires a 500W PSU, so I figured that this PSU would do the job.
However, now I'm reading that there's a whole lot of other things you have to worry about when buying a PSU.
I have no idea how to find out how many amps are on the 12V rail and all that stuff.
So can you guys tell me if my PSU can handle everything?
AMD Phenom™ II quad-core processor 960T
8GB DDR3 SDRAM
1.5TB Serial ATA hard drive (5400 rpm)
(Not too sure what else I'm supposed to list, I'm a noob at this stuff haha.)
All input will be greatly appreciated.
