So my dad orders a 7900gs without looking at the minimul power supply requirements. The psu his pc came with is a 450w psu and he thought that was great. I have yet to check the voltages in bios to see if this generic psu is stable with his stuff now, let alone the 7900gs. Here are the specs using a picture from the website of the power supply inside the case:
+5V = 30A
+3.3V = 25A
+12V = 25A
All under 450W according to the picture.
When I look on sites for power supply's, I can bearley find one with those kind of ratings (are they lying?) and newegg says the 7900gs needs atleast a 400W psu with 20A on the 12V rail. If what the psu says is legit, will this video card work fine?
I would try to find out more if the video card was in my dad's possession, let alone I was there. Lol
