Does this card suitable for alienware X51? I have GTX 670 in my desktop and the power is 300w or 330w

I own an X51 myself and the answer is no. The 780Ti's length is far longer and requires more power than the X51 can supply.

I ran it with a 300w and it ran fine. However, for the price, there are better cards you can get, like the 7750 and 7770 that aren't very expensive, but perform very well.

no it's not. You need at least 550W to get the full potential of this card.

Yes..Put it in the X16 slot. (You have 1) . You will also need at least a 500 watt PSU and 2... 6 pin power plugs for this card.

Yes this card WILL fit into the x51. I bought this exact card for my x51 to replace the gt 640 that was in it. You need the 330w power brick in order to use it, and you should get EVGA precision X software to underclock it just a TAD because sometimes while playing grphic intensive games like Metro Last Light it will max out on wattage usage and force the comp to restart. This is not an issue, as you can just lower the preferred power usage with the software. I bought an x51 just to have an itx comp to throw in the living room so I dont have to move my custom rig all over the place. But yes, this card will work fine.

300 W power supply is enough to run this card. There are no separate power supply cord or connection is necessary.

The power target of the GTX 660 is only 115W compared to its TDP of 140W (and reviews seem to show it running closer to that 115W). You should be fine adding it to your system, assuming you don't have 10 HDDs in there as well.

It only has 300w P/S. I believe the card you want requires a minimum 500w, 600w is recommended.

Hey Ronel,I have a 750 watt power supply that I am using with this card. However, a standard power supply one with no less than 350 watts should be enough to run the card with no problems. I would recommend getting a 400 to 450 watt power supply if you will be using this card for gaming.

my system has a 350W power supply..does that mean i am ok getting this card? or do i need a separate 300w supply? sorry i am new to this... any insight would be appreciated... thanks

Yes. The minimum power requirement for this card is 350Watt. Works well with my 375 watt supply.

The power supply must be 350W or greater (with a minimum 12V current rating of 20A). One card which consumes less power is the Evga GeForce GT 430 requiring 300 Watt or greater with a minimum of 22 amps on the +12 volt rail. The lower memory capacity has less heat but less gaming satisfaction, and it's compatible with Windows 7.

I really like this card. Graphics are awesome. It is a low power consuming card. According to the manufacturer, less than 60 watts. It does not require an independent power cable. So according to the manufacturer, it will run on a 300 watt power supple -- if that is what you are asking.

The spec sheet says the minimum power requirement is 300 watts for the system and 65 for the card, so it would seem your system is right on the edge.

300 watts is insufficient for this card. I'd recommend a 500w of real power. Don't buy a cheap brand. The longevity and safety of your entire PC rests in the PSUs hand.

It should work, however, you won't be able to take advantage of the full bandwidth of the card as it is a PCIe2.0 card.. In other words, you will be paying for features your computer can't exploit. Your dimension has a 305w power supply so it should be able to handle the 300w power supply requirement of the card. If you can find something that is only PCIe1.1 compliant you'll get better bang for your buck.

It should work, if anything, at least make sure your PSU is reliable. I had this card running with a 65W CPU on a 300W PSU
