Wow, you do have a PCI-E X16, which means you are in luck. You will be able to upgrade that power supply and get a new graphics card then! What's your budget friend?

EDIT: I intended to make this post a bit longer. A good PSU is going to set you back $45-$60 depending on your budget and the card you pick.

REALLY?! JESUS IM SO HAPPY! I'm just planning to put Radeon HD 5570 1GB DDR3. My budget is about 60$ for both psu and graphics. I read in the internet that HD 5570 uses low watts therefore its not that demanding. So maybe I don't need branded psu?

Rejoice, rejoice, hallelujah. :lol: 

Yep, that's an pci-e slot. It would have been a stupid mobo if it hadn't had one.

Now about that 5570 and psu ; you won't be able to get them both for 60 i think. But in spite of what i said earlier ( stupid me ) i think it will run on your 250W psu.

The 7750 would be a lot better and also possible on that psu but it's a bit more than 60 $.

If you wanne buy a new psu go for a good brand like Corsair, Antec, XFX, Seasonic. They cost around 50-60$.

Btw, is there anyway that you can monitor the wattage that your pc uses? and is 250watts + HD 5570 1GB DDR3 sufficient for games like dota 2, heroes of newerth. etc and some online games?

Okay so here's my specs:

So first of all, I want to ask if Acer provides generic / branded power supply.

I'm planning to buy HD 5570 DDR3 1GB, play games like cod:mw3, heroes of newerth, dota 2, LoL. So do I need to upgrade my power supply?

If yes, sadly I'm low on budget ( Student ) so I think I can only afford generic power supplies.

I heard that HD 5570 is not that demanding/hungry so will it be okay with, lets say 600w generic psu?

Btw I'm from Philippines and forgive me for my english.

Please help me with this problem. Thank you- :ange: 

Well, in this case it's good he asking it again, because both of us forgot to ask about the amps in the previous one. :( 

You tempt to just say "go" with the power friendly 5570 and 7750.

2 12V rails with 10a each? Hmm. You can have a max of 204W on the 12V rails at any time which is...17a total. I think that's enough to either run a 5570 or a 7750.

Just worried that it may malfunction due to low power supply watts since HD 5570 requires 400watts. But I'm not planning on overclocking the cpu and gpu. And play casual games like dota 2 and fps games like COD:MW3.

Btw is the brand FSP good for psu? Any ideas?

Okay so I bought Powercolor HD 5570, too bad its not the old one, i mean when using gpu-z, it shows that the codename is turks instead of redwood, 320 shader proc instead 400, 4 rops instead of 8rops.

But so far it works :)
