Psu advise for gpu

[hen_21]

hello friends iam going to upgrade my gpu from 9600 gt to his 6790, iam using cooler master extreme power plus 500w and i don't have enough money to upgrade it, can my psu run 6790.

other specs are
core i5 2500k
asus p8h67 mle
kingston 1333 4 gb*2
i dvd writer samsung sh-222
one 250 gb sata
2 case fans 12 v

Yes, it will be fine.

 

[sscultima]

that would be fine for your system.

throw some lights in there too and make it flashy, you will have plenty of power left

looks fine to me. the 6790 isn't a particularly power hungry card.

 

[hen_21]

thanks gonna buy 6790 tomorrow.

you're fine with that card; your system will still be under 350 watts total. but please know that your PSU isn't the greatest and pushing over 400 watts might not be a happy experience
