Hi. I recently bought myself a graphics card Gigabyte GTX 550 ti (900 mhz, min 400w). However i have a generic power supply unit (500w) which does not have a pci-e power cable and i am currently using a adapter. But when i play higher end 3d games such as Call of duty 6, the whole computer freezes and i have no choice but to restart the whole system as ctrl+alt+dtl does not work nor does anything else. On a low budget and wanting a quality PSU, i decided to chose Corsair's VS450w PSU at $61.
I am not sure if this will be enough wattage for my computer as following:
- Asus P5G41t-m le (motherboard)
- Intel core 2 duo E8400 3.0ghz
- Gigabyte GTX 550 ti (900mhz)
- Asus CD/DVD drive
- 2 x 2gb ram (4GB total)
I need help on weather the corsair 450w power supply is enough for my system, if not, can you please suggest one to me however i am on a low budget. ( I am also thinking about Silverstones essential strider 500w for $62)
THANK YOU VERY MUCH!!!!
