Hey,

I'm upgrading my GPU to a MSI GeForce 560 Ti HAWK 1024MB GDDR5 and I'm not sure if I will work with my power supply which is ModXStream Pro 500w Silent SLI Ready ATX2 Modular Power Supply. Will I need to get a bew PSU?

Thanks, Jack.

It should work for you but it might be close , similar 506Ti's from other manufacturer's list a minimum 500w psu requirement and there are some that want 550w. I couldn't find what MSI requires , which is pretty dumb because the watts of a psu is very important to the operation of the video card.

The 500W ModX should be fine for that gpu.
If you overclock the gpu and cpu you should find a more powerful unit though.
