Hello,

Im new to Toms Hardware.

I recently built a new desktop (my very first build). With the following specs.
*8gig 1600
*Celeron g530
*500gig 7200 rpm
* This motherboard http://
*This power supply (Anten 450w)http://

I ordered this graphics card that I want to put in soon.
and this graphics card (GTX 650ti)
http://

On the NewEgg description it said I needed a minimum of 400w power supply. But on the box it says I need a minimum 20 amps on the 12v rail and my PSU only has 18 amps on each rail. Does that mean I can't run this graphics card?

The card came with a twin molex to PCI-E, do I use that instead? Does it make a difference?

Thanks in advance for helping!
