Ok so i got this http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814130661

Its the best i could afford but then took notice that i needed a better PSU i have the Dell XPS420 375watt.

Can anyone help me find out witch PSU i need?

Also is my Intel Core 2 quad CPU Q660 Good enough to run my New card( BTW card is plugged in and works well)

Im asking for a new PSU because i noticed the heat went up pretty quick.

Thank you and if i posted in the wrong section sorry.

hello, i saw it in the nvidia.com website and it says it requires a 450w as minimum i can recommend you a gold certified silverstone PSU, take a look.

http://www.amazon.com/Silverstone-750Watts-Magnetized-ST75F-G-Evolution/dp/B006MBP7DG/ref=sr_1_2?s=electronics&ie=UTF8&qid=1360602300&sr=1-2&keywords=silverstone+750w

and i think the heat went up is because of the effort of the psu itself, ive understood that the most part of psu have a peak limit, example this silverstone maybe has a peak of 840 watts, so your psu is always in its peak due to the card, the card demands more power than the psu can bring it, so buy a better one and always gold certified :) have a nice day and i hope i can help you with this.
