Is a 450 watt psu enough for a gtx 560

[brodyman101]

Im looking for a good gpu to play battlefield 3 on and i think im going to get the gtx 560 non ti, but im not sure if 450 watts is enough for it?

What model is your PSU? What is the rating on the +12V rail(s)?

I have been asked this before and i looked on my psu and it is blank, there is nothing on it. They said the psu was a cheap model made by a company that does cheap work. But i dont think this should mater that much right, im not going to use i on ultra high games, just bf3 which is a demanding game but not that bad. So would it be enough for that?

No, first off I don't even think it has enough PCIE connectors. BF3 is one of the most taxing games out there.

Get a new PSU.

Any recomendations?

Corsair CX500W.

And all the connections to the psu are the same for all so i dont have to change any of that?

Yep!
