200 watt PSU

[Fullmetalx]

Unfortunately I won't be able to build a new computer until around summer time, but in the mean time I want to buy a fairly chap graphics card that can play starcraft 2. Unfortunately I only have a 200 watt PSU in my HP http://h10010.www1.hp.com/wwpc/ca/en/ho/WF06b/12132708-12133156-12133158-12133158-12133158-80230663-80443628.html.

I was thinking about getting a geforce 210 but will my 210 watt psu hold?

I'm currently running an Acer slimline with a Intel Q6600 and a ATI 5670 with no problems at all, can't say how long the PSU will last like that though. Another option is a Nvidia GT 430. I was running a Zotac one perfectly fine before the 5670.

whats the psu for the slimline? also what is the psu required for the gt 430?

It is a Liteon 220 W. Accodring to Nvidia, they recommend at least a 300 W power supply. But I figured I would be okay since I took the DVD drive out, I'm running a Wester Digital Green drive, and all stock settings.

so i should be fine with the gt 210 on a 200 watt psu? Like on a game like starcraft which i will be playing on low

Well I'm pretty sure the 210 will run fine on the PSU, but I doubt you would get very much performance out of Starcraft 2. You might be able to play the campaign fine, but almost any online game would probably bring your system to its needs.
