Again I AM Still Trying to get a new graphics card so my choice was the palit geforce 210 that i can run but i want to know if i can run the AMD Radeon HD5450 1Gb It Needs A 400W PSU.
I Have A 400W PSU
with dual rail..
+12v1 is 10A
+12v2 is 14A

I Have A Supported PCI-E Place In The Motherboard to put it in.

So Can i Run The AMD Radeon HD5450 1Gb or i will get the PALIT Geforce 210?
 
Why do you make a new thread each time you have a question about the same thing you asked in the last thread?
Each time you post in a thread including one of your own, it gets bumped up so people will see it and respond if so moved.

To answer your question the 400watts is for a bare bones system with a vid card in it.
Keep in mind you have other devices nursing off that same power supply. Figure in:
Mother board
CPU
RAM
Hard drive(s)
Optical drive
Fans
Lights (If you have them)
And whatever other power consuming goodies you may have

My rule of thumb is if the system is requiring x amount of watts to function and I want to add something else, I add 200watts to the total and buy accordingly.
