Any reason you're going for such an old card? 

 

What kind of budget are you working with, and what PC is it going into? You might get more for your money if you get a newer midrange card, even if it's "just" a x050.

I sold my soul for ProSupport.

does your power supply have the necessary 6-pin (or 8-pin) power connectors?

 

then you have your answer.

Should be fine unless your GPU is really unstable. 

I've used a 460w psu for a 660, 960 and 3060.

mITX is awesome! I regret nothing (apart from when picking parts or have to do maintainance *cough*cough*)

While I used a lot my ps4 in the past,I always had a low end pc,and i want to make sometime in the future a big update where i will get a bigger case,bigger power supply and all the other components.But until then I saw a second hand 760 for around 20$ and think it is a good pick for now since it runs the games i want to play good, I'm not interested at the moment to play more demanding games that have been released recently
