Hi all,

I'm gonna get a 7900GTX, together with an A64 and 2GB of ram...

I currently own a 450W OCZ Modstream PSU, which i'm also planning to use to power my new parts.. So my question is; Is it gonna cut it..? Because i heard 7900GTX's require a sick amount of power...

My PSU specs are as follows:

450Watt
+3.3V: 28A
+5V: 45A
+12V: 26A
-12V: 1.0A
-5V: 0.8A
+5VSB: 2.5A

Thanks in advance.

I have almost exactly the same system with a 500 and no problems, also my 500 has "SLi ready" on it, so 450 should be fine for 1 card
