EVga 560Ti SC Power

[maxthepain]

Hi
Would an evga 560Ti SC run on the Seasonic S12II 520W and still have headroom, I dont wanna be pushing it?
Also, if I later decided to upgrade to a 2500K and DDR3 would it still run?

Current PC:
Q6600@2.4
Intel DP965LT
4x1GB DDR2
1 WD 250GB HDD

Thanks

Ok your PSU puts out 480w on the 12v rail your card uses about 210w to 220w under load. If you add what your CPU will use, you will still have head room not much but it will be ok. I hope this helps you and I wish you good luck.

Sure. The Seasonic being one of the best PSU manufacturer & its rating is in accordance with nVidia recommendation.
You can play around with this tool to estimate the system power requirement if you get the 560 Ti with your current ( Q6600 ) & the future (2500K) build.
