Hi
I been pondering on building my first computer for over a year and slowly been buying components a little at a time. Finding a deal here and (when I could afford it) a deal there. I realize now that wasnÂ’t the best plan cause of how fast technology changes so my components arenÂ’t the best match. Oh well, anyway Â….listed below are my components and with the last one purchased being the video card.
My question is if my PSU can handle the X1900XTX Ice-3 graphic card which requirements says 30A on a 12V rail. I really donÂ’t understand power specs very well so IÂ’ll list what they are and hope someone can tell me if its got what it takes to drive this card. Thanks in advance.
My components are:
• AMD Athlon 64 3400+ 2.40GHz OEM Processor
• Gigabyte K8NE NVIDIA Socket 754 ATX Motherboard Chipset: NVIDIA nForce4 4x Front Side Bus: 1600MHz
• 1 GIG of fast PC-3200 RAM DDR400
• HIS X1900XTX IceQ3 Dual DL-DVI VIVO 512MB PCIe-Video Card
• Seagate S-ATA-150 250MB 7200 rpm Hard Drive
• CREATIVE|SB0570 AUDIGY SE RT Sound Card
• Lite-On 52x32x52x+16x DVD/CD-RW Combo
• CD/RW & Floppy
• Mid ATX 600W Supercooled w/ LEDCase
