Posted September 28, 2017 No. You need closer to 300w-350w Personal build > New-ish AMD main gaming setup PLEASE QUOTE OR @ ME FOR A RESPONSE Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Posted September 28, 2017 I would not, Your CPU and GPU will pull at least 150-200 watts. We're not even counting other things you might be drawing more power from. You technically could, but even nVidia reccomends you pull at least 300+ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Posted September 28, 2017 You can always check if Compact sell a higher wattage power supply to work with your PC, I know Asus or Acer do it with a 200something and 400something option.

Posted September 28, 2017 thats cutting it really close. i wouldent do it. if it boots, undervolting the CPU would be the first thing to do, and the GPU aswell if you can(dont think so) and i definatly wouldent on anything but a high quality PSU I spent $2500 on building my PC and all i do with it is play no games atm & watch anime at 1080p(finally) watch YT and write essays... nothing, it just sits there collecting dust...

Posted September 28, 2017 10 minutes ago, vinyldash303 said: It will be fine. Could probably even go up to a 1050ti. I've got a i5 2320 and a r7 240 in my HP, two hard drives, and a wifi card all on a 240 watt power supply. Doesn't even blink. Going up to an i7 2600 and a 1050 Ti come end of january probably. You might be fine, but that's still living on the edge. Treck very carefully, dragons ahead Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Posted September 28, 2017 1 minute ago, vinyldash303 said: While I will admit, the r7 240 is a less power hungry card, I would argue its a tradeoff with the cpu power usage. If it wasn't safe to pull 75 watts from the pci slot, asus wouldn't have it on the motherboard. r7 240 pulls 30w maxx. google was wrong Personal build > New-ish AMD main gaming setup PLEASE QUOTE OR @ ME FOR A RESPONSE Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If they didn't want you pull 75 watts from the slot, they'd have a blurb on the PCB like Dell does on some of their SFF systems where it says "50 watts max".

Posted October 3, 2017 PSUs are dirt cheap especially in the 300-500w range... you should consider getting a bit more headroom IMO, not operate at the near limit. a 300-400w should suffice for a 1050.
