580w PSU and new gpu
Last response: in Graphics & Displays
Hello,
Currently looking at an upgrade to my GPU from my 8800GT 512mb
Basically my specs are all ok apart from the PSU which is a hiper type R 580W
(Please dont ask me to upgrade)
on both the 12V lines its say in the manual
+12v1 0.2a/20a
+12v2 0.0a/18a
I presume this means I have 38a on the 12v line?
Now after looking for a while I guess im out of the running for the new cards that require this 75w line? (im confused here) so my only choice is the older range of cards below:
Discrete: GTX 260, GTX 275, GTX 280, GTX 460 768 MB, GTX 460 SE, GTX 550 Ti
Discrete: HD 4870, HD 5770, HD 4890, HD 5830, HD 6770, HD 6790
Is this right?
After researching for a new graphics card came across a few sites that might be useful for anybody looking:

I presume this means I have 38a on the 12v line? The label affixed to the Hiper Type R 580W power supply shows a MAX Combined Wattage for +12V1 & +12V2 is 360W. That's only a maximum of 30 Amps.
Some graphics cards that should work:
GeForce GTX 560 Ti
GeForce GTX 560
GeForce GTX 550 Ti
Radeon HD 6970 as long as you don't run FurMark or OCCT GPU stress testing
Radeon HD 6950
Radeon HD 6870
