    Doubt..

    I'd recommend a 500w+ PSU.

    @BerZerker You may be able to run it. Depends if you have enough voltage on the +12V rail. What's the exact make and model of your PSU?

    Is it a pre-built computer like HP or Dell? If so, what's the model of our computer? I can look it up if you could give me that info.

    BerZerker Nope you can't The 460 needs dual 6-pin connectors which I doubt that PSU has. And besides, these pre-built computers have absolutely shitty PSUs. So I doubt it has enough juice for the 460. But the XFX 6770 should run fine on that PSU. Very good budget GPU imo.

    Thanks. Are there any good Nvidia ones that I could use? I'm really picky about GPU's.

    That card doesn't take power directly from the PSU.
    Get a new PSU and card dude.

    I actually have to apologize for my 6770 recommendation. It will not run on that PSU. I was thinking of some other thread. Sorry for that. But this should run fine on that. And I suppose you are a nvidia fanbo? AMD makes good cards too you know.
