Hi, so basically i have a switching creation 600 watts PSU with a DEDICATED 6 PIN PCI-E power connector and i want to know if an asus gtx 550 ti will be able to run on it...Also the most important thing is that it has 10amps on the 12v rail and i know this is little. Most people are telling me the psu is good as long as it has a 6 pin power connector.The graphic card vendor even inspected my psu and guaranteed me that it would work even with the GPU stressed and funtioning at max!I'm puzzled ;0 My question to you all is if the psu was that bad what THE HELL WOULD IT HAVE A 6 PIN connector! THis would defeat the purpose of having 10 amps on the 12v rail...sorry i'm no expert in power supplies and graphic stuffs but i REALLY want to know this. ANY HELP WILL BE APPRECIATED!THANKS!

hmm,i know! the brand is creation and presumably its a generic one...but the cables are very well wrapped with that nylon stuff that you find on good psu's. theres a 120mm fan that works pretty well and it has 6 satas, 6 molex and one 6 pin connectors. i'm surprised that it even has all those connectors! hmm, what do you think?

no the psu does not have multiple 12v rails (specs; 3.3@20a, 5@12a, 12@10 with peak power stated as 600 watts) and it is just as heavy as my 80+ cx600 running in ANOTHER system. my entire sys specs are; i5 2320, mobo ecs h61h2-m6, seagate baraccuda 500gb, asus dvd writer + 2 120mm led fans and they are running perfectly.
this s a very budget limited gaming( so to speak) PC.

@Deemo13: sorry for posting this again, but i had no convincing answers :(
 


I really just dont care, the moderators do. But I would as well recommend a new power supply.
