Is this PSU enough?

E-Bear · Oct 14, 2018

I have this power supply at home like new in box.

http://www.silentpcreview.com/article610-page1.html

Could it be enough for a system like this:
i5 G630
2x4gigs ddr3
1 hdd
1 dvd-rw
2 fans
EVGA GTX275

I know psu is 600w maximum but is it enough for the GPU 22amps?

Thank you.

I laugh cause just because it states it can run a Dual-core system does not mean that it can't run a Quad-core system. Just because it states it requires 40+ AMPs doesn't mean it'll need it

This is very old PSU and I would recommend something newer and better/safer. It's nowhere near 600W, but only 420W. It should be enough, but only just.

I recommend FSP Hydro 600W (552W): http://www.fsplifestyle.com/PROP163000554/ . It's has very reasonable price, 80 Plus Bronze certificate and will be much better suitable for possible future upgrades.

My system is dual core.

OK but anyway yes the psu looks old so as Kom says look for a newer model

I will look in électronique thrash then. It's where I get all my parts to build rigs. I have a young family to pay for so I expense nothing in computer hardwares.

In that case, honestly, it's probably just fine for what is literally a "garbage PSU." Yes it's old, but it should do the job.

EVGA card has problems whatever the psu I put in so I downgraded to a smaller card. This thread is now useless...if mods want to close it.

Thank you.
