HD5450 Can I Run It?

[minepro]

I Have A 400W PSU With +12v1 10A +12v2 14A
And I Was Wondering If I Could Run It I Have a:
MotherBoard:ECS 945-GCTM2 It Has a pci-e2.0 slot
Ram:2x 1Gb DDR2
CPU:Intel Pentium Dual Core E2160 1.8Ghz
And I Play a bit of games,not much so yeah.

The GPU doesn't require any PCIe power connectors. To answer your question, yes; you can run it. Not sure how much it'll help your gaming though. The entire build is very weak. Almost better to invest money to get a stronger system instead.

Okay,Then i think i will be just getting this.

i checked the game debate website it needed 22 amps but i only have max 14 amps or how do i get the dual rail amps together?

Its Here:

its under psu 400w & 22 Amps

That makes sense. You confused me for a second. Anyway, the PSU should have a footnote that says what the total amps for both +12V rails. Find that value. The amps of the two +12V rails are not additive.

 

[minepro]

under +12v1 and +12v2 there is a vertical line

 

[ksham]

What PSU do you have?

 

[minepro]

codegen 400w

 

[ksham]

Can you take a picture of the sticker? The ones I found online only has one +12V rail @ 16 amps.

My camera is not working so just this link with the first picture is the one but the text is in my language(estonian)so dont bother reading it:

[ksham]

Hmm weird it doesn't say and I can't find it telling me the combined +12V. Anyway, you'll be fine.

 

[minepro]

cant you see the pic on the page?

 

[ksham]

Yes, but it doesn't say the total amps for the +12V rail.

Okay
