What is the minimum wattage required? i m using this seasonic M12II 520W Bronzepsu. will it run?

I think minimum is 500 watts, double that for xfire! But then it also depends on how much hardware is in your comp to begin with, like more then 2 HDD, 9 case fans etc.....

The wattage is a little low, you MIGHT be able to if your mobo & cpu don't consume too much power but you'd be cutting it close. Also, unless you're running a decent i5 or up (or a mid to higher end AMD FX) you'll hit a bottle neck. This is a powerful card and needs a pretty decent CPU to bring out it's full potential.All that said, no, the M12II will not run this card because it requires 2 8 pin connectors and the PSU only has a 6 and 6+2. While you COULD convert a modular connector to an 8 pin connector I would heavily recommend against it.

Late answer, so I hope that you haven't had any problems. At full load, this card can consume up to 350W. I wouldn't go less than 750 for a PSU. If you plan on an OC, I'd go even higher. That being said, my CPU, GPU, and RAM are all OC'd. I've also got four HDD and one SSD, five case fans, and a 1050W Corsair. If you're considering spending this kind of money, I'd feel better knowing that the PSU voltage isn't going off course due to an overload, or that the PSU killed itself without taking casualties (fingers crossed).

450w is recommended at the least it seems. I use a 600w and don't have any issues.

I wouldn't recommend using a 435w PS. I would at least go with 600 watts as long as it is 80+ gold. This card does sip quite a bit of power.

It may run on a 425W PSU but it will run sluggish. Yes the card requires you have two 6-pin connectors hooked to it to run properly. It will run properly if you upgrade the power supply. The card requires a minimum of 500 Watts, but my suggestion would be to go to a 550w at least or a 600w PSU.

I don't know what your entire system power requirements, but unless you have a ton of extra equipment running you should be fine with 750 watts. I'm running that gpu with a 650 Watt power supply and have zero problems.

One of these draws 250 W according to Nvidia so x2 = 500. You also need to account for your CPU MoBo and other things so I would go for something ratted with 700+ watts.I recomend this SilverStone ATX12V/EPS12V 750W Silver PFC Power Supply ST75F-P (Black) or this if you want silence http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16817151087

No, or at least not well. This unit would be massively underpowered. find out how many watts your old power supply was running. then add a minimum of 200 more. look for bronze, silver or gold in the title. take a hard earned lesson from me and don't cheap out on your power supply.

400 watt or greater is the recommendation for this model. You should calculate how your psu is destrobuting it's power to make sure you can delegate enough to the card

The EVGA web site lists a 350W minimum power supply. The heat sink can get quite warm under taxing use.

I have a 430 watt PSU, and it runs perfectly. Those recommended wattages are usually overstated.

The wattage depends on what you are currently configured with. You can use Pcpartpicker.com to help determine it. I do recommend this PSU because of it being modular and also supports my two 650ti boosts in SLI. Power cords are long and thin so you can easily manage the cables to be nice and tidy.

you will be perfectly fine i have a 430 watt psu currently and i never even get near t going over that. this graphics card uses only about 80 watts on average. The only time you need to worry about wattage is when you get higher end cards or more of them.

I use 650W . I think it is enough. You can search some websites that tells you exactly how much you need depending on your computer.

Should have no issues with a 750 watt. Can always do a power supply calculator which is easily found via Google search. Temps seem to be in this mid 70s for me but I also live in AZ with avg room temp of 78

You want a reputable PSU that supplies 500 watts minimum. Yours should be fine. You will need a 6 pin PCI-e power adapter to power this card though. Some cards come with one. Before you buy, ask the seller if it includes the adapter that changes the 4-pin molex to 6-pin PCI-e power. If not, you can buy an adapter for a couple bucks on the internet.

Almost definitely. I was running it on a 500w PSU but I also have a lower power consumption from my CPU to help with that. Unless you are running it with a AMD 9590 or something like that, 650w PSU should work great.

PNY listed the minimum power supply as 400W. I upgrade to a 650w to be safe.You may want to consider the same.
