HD 5670 @x4 and 250W PSU

A

got a deal for 5670 DDR5. It will be running @x4 on a 250W PSU, CPU-C2d e4400.
Is it okay to run 5670 on these specs??

UPDATE:- Currently running 9400 GT

Yes. But better you invest on a FSP 300W PSU.

250 watt PSU+5670=LOL Kaboom.
Do that only if wanna blow it up.

Atleast 400 watt from a Reputed Brand:Corsair/FSP/Tagan.

At least Corsair CX 430 v2... It would be better if you increase the budget and buy GS 500..

gs500 ..wont be req...will provide headroom for overclocking...anyway c2d 4400 will cause bottlenecking in ocing ...so cx430v2 recommended.

hmm.. well, I were thinking that he would overclock so why not leave headroom, I think 430 W is enough, my first suggestion..

what does @4X mean? PCIe X 4 slot?

250W is a bit low even for such a low power GPU. but if it can really provide 16A on the 12V rail, then it can be used without any worry.

^^that 250 watt must be desi 1....i can bet on it so no chance of that...hcl..came bundled with cab/pc....

yes, PCIe x4 slot, will i get any performance issues?

Shall i give it a try on my current PSU?

can give it a try but sooner or later psu will die.

PLEASE google a bit before commenting. Enhance is not a desi PSU manufacturer. they are OEM and makes PSU for the branded PC.

as even most highend GPU can't fully saturate the PCIe X 16 slot, so there is a chance of bottleneck but that shouldn't affect performance in a big way.

yup. go ahead.

^^ok sorry .lost my bet..hehe
didnt know about oems much..regrets to anyone confused due to that. still 250 watts wont be good for that rig.

just googled.they are 80+ certified manufacturers.!!!
