big enough psu

[ryan123321]

i want to try add a gts 450 to my current system to see how well it performs rendering videos but i dont know if my psu is big enough

i have a 650w psu, r9 280x, fx6300 2 hdds and an optical drive

ps. this is more for fun than anything so i wont be disappointing if it dosent work

That PSU is more than sufficient for such a small addon card

If not on heavy overclock (your system), it should handle well.

Is not that small.. it can use around 110W

That thing is so weak it doesn't even need power from any source besides the PCI slot, your good.

That PSU is total overkill /jk

The PSU should be good, however if you do upgrades in the future its something to consider.
