HD 5670 @x4 and 250W PSU

[AmpleNM]

got a deal for 5670 DDR5. It will be running @x4 on a 250W PSU, CPU-C2d e4400.
Is it okay to run 5670 on these specs??

UPDATE:- Currently running 9400 GT

Yes. But better you invest on a FSP 300W PSU.

250 watt PSU+5670=LOL Kaboom.
Do that only if wanna blow it up.

Atleast 400 watt from a Reputed Brand:Corsair/FSP/Tagan.

At least Corsair CX 430 v2... It would be better if you increase the budget and buy GS 500..

 

[Sujeet]

gs500 ..wont be req...will provide headroom for overclocking...anyway c2d 4400 will cause bottlenecking in ocing ...so cx430v2 recommended.

 

[koolent]

hmm.. well, I were thinking that he would overclock so why not leave headroom, I think 430 W is enough, my first suggestion..

what does @4X mean? PCIe X 4 slot?

250W is a bit low even for such a low power GPU. but if it can really provide 16A on the 12V rail, then it can be used without any worry.

^^that 250 watt must be desi 1....i can bet on it so no chance of that...hcl..came bundled with cab/pc....

yes, PCIe x4 slot, will i get any performance issues?

Shall i give it a try on my current PSU?

 

[Sujeet]

can give it a try but sooner or later psu will die.

PLEASE google a bit before commenting. Enhance is not a desi PSU manufacturer. they are OEM and makes PSU for the branded PC.

as even most highend GPU can't fully saturate the PCIe X 16 slot, so there is a chance of bottleneck but that shouldn't affect performance in a big way.

yup. go ahead.

^^ok sorry .lost my bet..hehe
didnt know about oems much..regrets to anyone confused due to that. still 250 watts wont be good for that rig.

just googled.they are 80+ certified manufacturers.!!!
