egorter Posted February 12, 2011 Posted February 12, 2011 Unfortunately no, you should prolly get a 600 watt PS or even an 850 Quando Omni Flunkus Moritati Master sergeant shooter sergeant important person of sergeants extreme:gun_rifle:
MTFDarkEagle Posted February 12, 2011 Posted February 12, 2011 Nope. You can't. You need a more powerfull psu mate :) 600w is pushing it a bit (depends on the rest of your system though), but you can make do with such a wattage if the psu is from a high brand name.

egorter Posted February 12, 2011 Posted February 12, 2011 Well, its hard to say without "seeing" the system. Normaly there are four screws holding it to the chassis from the back. You will also need to disconnect all of the various power connectors. Quando Omni Flunkus Moritati Master sergeant shooter sergeant important person of sergeants extreme:gun_rifle:
rextar Posted February 12, 2011 Author Posted February 12, 2011 Ok thx i know my gtx 260 needs two power cables to it, so i will have to keep yhat in mind when getting a new power supply?

egorter Posted February 12, 2011 Posted February 12, 2011 Yes, also you will need to make sure that it has all the correct connectors for the system board as well. Quando Omni Flunkus Moritati Master sergeant shooter sergeant important person of sergeants extreme:gun_rifle:
